How to cope with Fear with Elliot M. Sklar, PhD and Lucy Barylak, MSW
Caregivers often experience a series of common emotions in the process of providing
care. When we don’t address these emotions, they can impact upon our physical and
mental health. This series will provide a forum to discuss these feelings and experiences, along with practical tips and answers to your questions. At the end of this session, for
those that are interested, Elliot and Lucy will stay on the line and offer personal
support. This part of the program will not be recorded.
Coping with the declining health of someone around us can trigger fear – fear about what
is to come, and even fear about our own health. This session will address coping with ongoing fear and anxiety.
