单集简介 ...

The idea of getting older and slowly losing memory of everything and everyone around us is something that can cause lots of dread and anxiety. Beyond the sensationalized depictions in shows such as Grey’s Anatomy, let's explore the real impacts of Alzheimer’s disease and how it can affect our families and loved ones. Joining me for this important conversation is cognitive neuropsychologist and Associate Director of the Rush Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center, Dr. Lisa L. Barnes. Dr. Barnes has published over 300 manuscripts, received many NIH grants, and is the Principal Investigator of two longitudinal community-based studies of older African Americans. During our conversation, we discussed the common symptoms and presentations of Alzheimer’s, the link between Alzheimer’s and traumatic stress, and the importance of including Black folks in clinical trials when studying various medical interventions for Alzheimer’s. About the Podcast The Therapy for Black Girls Podcast is a weekly conversation with Dr. Joy Harden Bradford, a licensed Psychologist in Atlanta, Georgia, about all things mental health, personal development, and all the small decisions we can make to become the best possible versions of ourselves.
