Support Groups
This multi-layered approach makes complete sense and was easy to incorporate into my life.
Jennifer D.Support groups are effective at helping patients from isolating and becoming depressed or frustrated by their condition. It is a safe environment to share your challenges and successes dealing with your recovery. Research has shown that patients that participate in a support group have better results than patients who do not.
I have partnered with two psychotherapists that are highly experienced and qualified to help patients through the difficult situations that arise dealing with chronic illness, infertility and/or pain.
Dr. Kevin Orzech is a psychotherapist in Berkeley who specializes in Mindfulness Training for pain, stress and addictions. Mindfulness is a powerful method to allow you to uncouple the sensory experiences of physical pain, stress or illness from the emotional/fight-flight reactions to reduce your suffering. Groups, couples and individual therapies are offered. See www.DrKevinO.com or call 510-981-2187 for details.
