Dr. Frampton Gwynette is Professor and Chair of the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine at LSU Health Shreveport and a board-certified child and adolescent psychiatrist. Throughout his career, he has dedicated his work to advancing autism care through clinical practice, research, education, and advocacy.
Before joining LSU Health Shreveport, Dr. Gwynette served on the faculty at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), where he founded innovative programs including Project Rex and the Autism News Network—initiatives designed to empower individuals with autism and amplify their voices through education, storytelling, and community engagement.
In addition to his leadership in autism care, Dr. Gwynette is passionate about educating future psychiatrists and behavioral health professionals while expanding access to quality mental health services. His work continues to influence how clinicians, educators, and communities better understand and support individuals on the autism spectrum.
In this episode of Asking Why, Dr. Gwynette joins Clint Davis for a thoughtful conversation about autism, the evolving landscape of mental health care, supporting families, reducing barriers to treatment, and the importance of investing in the next generation of mental health providers.
