In today's interview with Dr. Lily Brown, Director of the Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety from the University of Pennsylvania, we will learn about the stress and anxiety a person may encounter in the role of a caregiver. We will also learn about skills and techniques that can be used to reduce stress levels while still providing care to loved ones.
