Specializes in Clinical Psychology

Visualize success: Any thing that scares us comes from fear. Fear in this case surrounding medical procedures. Our brain is our most powerful ally. Visualize peaceful, soothing thoughts while you breathe slowly in and out. Include a positive self statement or mantra like all is well. And it will keep your mind from wandering to negative thoughts.
