Social & Emotional Wellness
Emotional and social health is an important part of living well with Parkinson’s disease. Many symptoms of Parkinson’s, such as anxiety, apathy and mood changes, can affect emotional and social wellness. Learn how various clinical and creative therapies can support not only symptom management but the overall well-being of the person living with PD.
