Program summary by Chris Chamars from September 2021. In this session, GRYT Health’s Chief Medical Officer, Dan Platt, MD, and Chief Research Officer, Darcy Flora, Ph.D., came together to talk about some of the most impactful projects we have done with our community.

The program summary for Reclaiming Your Body & Confidence, part 1 of 4 from our Mental Health Series.
Program description: Cancer can make you feel as though you have been robbed of the body you once felt very at home in and leave many feeling completely disconnected from themselves. While this is incredibly common in the cancer community, there is still very little done to address it. Join us for a presentation from a member of First Descents to talk about their approach to bringing survivors back to themselves for over 20 years now. First Descents is a non-profit dedicated to serving the AYA (Adolescent and Young Adult) cancer community. This presentation will include an activity to get you thinking about your relationship to your body as a survivor and how you can start improving that relationship.
