Dr. Mrazik will provide practical tools and strategies grounded in cutting-edge neuroscience to enhance your mental well-being. Whether you’re looking to improve your own mental wellness or support others, this session is a valuable opportunity to learn from one of Canada’s leading experts in the field.
