Dr. David Wakefield Addresses the Mind & Spirit

This program features licensed psychologist and family and marital therapist Dr. David Wakefield, who works in the Mind-Body Medicine Department at Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA) at Southwestern Regional Medical Center.

Dr. Wakefield talks about the philosophy of CTCA, including the Mother Standard® of care, Patient Empowerment MedicineSM, and whole-person cancer treatment. He says many patients come to CTCA with advanced stage disease, looking for realistic hope and compassionate care.

Dr. Wakefield says the Mind-Body Medicine Program at CTCA helps address the psychological and spiritual aspects of the cancer experience. Program offerings such as stress management classes, relaxation techniques, humor therapy, and spiritual support aim to improve quality of life and help patients cope with treatment-related side effects.

Real Patients. Real Stories. Real Hope.

Do these videos feature real cancer patients?

Yes, the videos in this section feature real CTCA survivors with real stories to tell. These are not actors. They are cancer patients who came to CTCA and emerged as survivors. These stories are not scripted. They are personal accounts of people who found hope, and a voice, at CTCA. This is what they have to say, in their own words...

Why are some, not all, cancer types listed?

At CTCA, we treat individuals with a variety of cancer types. However, all of our survivors are not on film. If you don't see a survivor with the cancer type you're looking for, it only means we do not have a video at this time.

Keep in mind, we are continuously adding videos to this section. If you don't see the one you're looking for today, visit us again, or let us know how we can improve.
