“We have to decide where we’re going to anchor ourselves, and I think we all need three to five really great and positive relationships with people that will tell us the truth. We can really be empowered by each other right now.” – Dr. Gregory Jantz
During times of uncertainty like these today, we see an increase in stress, fear, and anxiety, but the good news is that depression and anxiety are treatable and there are key steps we can take today to help ourselves not just survive, but thrive through change. A whole-person approach to care – mind, body, and soul – has proven to produce lasting results, and today’s Finding Brave guest has made it his mission to improve the lives of others with this focus and approach.
Dr. Gregory Jantz is a bestselling author, psychologist, and the founder of The Center: A Place of Hope, where he treats people suffering from anxiety, depression, PTSD, addiction, eating disorders and more. Dr. Jantz’s latest book, Healing Depression for Life: The Personalized Approach That Offers New Hope for Lasting Relief is on shelves now.
