“We had Dr. Cooper come to our team conference and speak on Mental Health with her session on “Combating Mental Fatigue”. She was engaging and led our team through an emotional journey of discovering ways to know their mental health needs and healthy ways to approach those needs. Our team enjoyed the engaging curriculum and the tips to apply immediately. I’m so glad we have someone of Dr. Cooper’s caliber as a resource for our team.”
