Physicians, physician's assistants, nurses, and other frontline medical professionals face increasing levels of stress, exacerbated in the face of the COVID-19 global pandemic. Overcoming Secondary Stress in Medical and Nursing Practice is an indispensable self-care resource for medical and nursing professionals, students, and the counselors and therapists who work with them.

With a healthy perspective we can become resilient in ways that not only help us bounce back from stress and tough times, but we can actually deepen in ways which would not have been possible had they not occurred in the first place. The Simple Care of a Hopeful Heart offers a series of brief, accessible lessons in self-care and self-understanding to enhance such possibilities.
