I rely on the humanities to gain a more comprehensive and deep understanding of medicine and to process my own experience as a physician. I help facilitate The Healer’s Art elective for M1/M2 students and I participate in narrative writing sessions for healthcare providers. I am also keep a semi-regular journaling practice and often turn to art or music to help me process strong emotions or challenges that come up in my clinical practice and personal life.
