Adapting Psychologically After a Heart Attack and Surgery

Trent Lash from Heartbeats North Shore

Heartbeats community-led cardiac support group is sponsoring a seminar by Vanessa Garcia, M.Sc. (Psych) Health Psychologist, on anxiety and dealing with psychological issues after a heart attack, stroke or major heart event. This also applies to cancer patients.

WHERE: Sunnynook Community Centre, 148 Sycamore Drive, Sunnynook
WHEN: THURSDAY 28th November at 7:00 - 8:00pm

Vanessa is a clinical psychologist and deals specifically with heart and cancer patients i.e. patients of major health syndromes. She will be talking about coping mechanisms and the resources available to patients across Auckland and New Zealand. Vanessa practices on the North Shore and has previously worked with HeartKIDZ.

Although specifically for Heartbeats members, we are opening this informal seminar up to the Public - everyone is welcome to come along, listen to Vanessa, and join in on the extensive Q&A discussion.
