In today’s culture of constant social comparison, becoming more emotionally mature is an especially critical topic. Dr. Kane will discuss this from the perspective of how our brains work and how that impacts our lives. She will help unpack some underlying beliefs and thought processes around body image, anxiety and depression, and other emotional struggles, which will help increase mental health stability.
