According to Sheryl Zayas, DO, Medical Director with Care Resource, “Women have unique health issues, including menses, pregnancy, and menopause, among others. Some health issues that affect both men and women can also present differently in women. For example, heart attacks more frequently present without chest pain. It is vital that women receive preventative care so underlying health conditions do not go unrecognized.

Behavioral health is another vital component of overall wellbeing that is often neglected or ignored. Women are more often the primary caregivers in families and can experience stress balancing their multiple roles as mother, employee. Friend, and more. Care Resource’s behavioral health specialists can ease the stress and provide specialized care that draws on a wide range of experiences, including client-centered supportive psychotherapy for addictions, cognitive behavioral counseling for depression, and assisted relaxation training and guided imagery for pain management and social anxiety.
