Mental Health Help Online — MindCare

In this episode of “Boomer TV: Embrace Age, Empower Dreams, Embrace Life,” Andy Asher, editor of Bloomer Boomer talks to Jeff Williams – CEO, MindPath Care Centers. All of the services at MindPath Care Centers are aimed at providing the best mindcare for you.

“Mindcare” includes everything you need to improve and protect your emotional, psychological, biological and social health. It combines a medical understanding of our brains, professional techniques to help us control how we react or respond to outside influences and stressors, and treatments to target conditions that are beyond our control. When you combine physical care, provided by primary and specialist health providers, with the mindcare provided by health professionals like MindPath, you have a complete source of overall healthcare. Without a healthy mind, it can be much more difficult to have a healthy body.
