 Do you have patients with serious illness who have unresolved pain, fatigue, depression, anxiety, or distress?

Are you looking for more tools for your symptom management toolbox?

If your patient asks, "Am I dying?" do you know just what to say?

Help for you and your patients

When your patient is crying, in pain, or their anxiety is compromising treatment, you want to know how best to help them. Medications can be helpful, but sometimes they aren't enough. It can be frustrating for you, and for your patients.

The integrative approach to symptom management untangles the web of physical and emotional suffering and provides evidence-supported tools that can help your patients feel better.

And when your patients feel better, you’ll feel better too.

Physicians and patients used to be partners in healthcare. Lately, they may feel like they are on opposite sides of a battle that no one seems to be winning.

There is a better way.

I highly recommend it.

"Taking care of patients with serious illnesses is not a one size fits all; instead, it involves thinking beyond conventional medical care and treating the whole person through the integrative palliative approach. This program does an excellent job of teaching physicians all the great benefits of integrative care to patients and themselves. I highly recommend it.”
