The second episode of TIF’s three-part Mental Health podcast series is all about helping patients cope with feelings of worry and anxiety about future and current life situations that can oftentimes be quite overwhelming. Discussing on what patients themselves have brought up through their own questions, our hosts’ aim in this episode is to offer simple guidance and encouragement to help listeners break through negative thoughts and empower them to live their best life.
