This HeartTALK will be presented Vanessa Garcia. Vanessa Garcia is a Cardiac Health Psychologist who offers online and in-person services at her Heart Mind Psychology. She is passionate about the mind-body connection and takes a holistic approach to health and wellbeing. Vanessa works with a range of people including those who have experienced sudden cardiac events, cardiac surgery, medical trauma, inherited or congenital cardiac conditions, and more.
Vanessa will be talking about anxiety and psychosocial issues following a heart event and ways of dealing with these. Her presentation will be informal and very much about facilitating an open discussion on issues and how to work through these.
A health psychologist is a psychologist with specialised training in health and the mind-body connection. A Health Psychologist can help with adjustment to health conditions, health-related anxiety and trauma, as well as optimising overall wellbeing.
The talk is free of charge, and everyone is welcome. Come along, question and learn from a psychologist who specialises in the heart and has worked with HeartKids.
This event will be held on the 30th March, from 7pm at Sunnynook Community Centre
