Cancer Matters

Ep. 26 Gene Brooks, PhD, CRC


Join the host Renae as she has a discussion with Dr. Gene Brooks, PhD. Dr. Brooks is a graduate of the Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired (TSBVI), Retired Lecturer from University of Texas in Austin, Certified Rehabilitation Counselor and Psychosocial Researcher.

Caring for someone with advanced cancer pulls on every emotional thread you have. You’re trying to stay strong, stay present, and stay functional—all while grieving the life you thought you’d have. Talking with a mental‑health professional is one of the most self nurturing things you can do for yourself and for the person you care for.
