Jennifer von Baudissin, Clinical Director and Psychodynamic Psychotherapist had the opportunity to present at the prestigious International Congress of Endocrinologists (ICE 2024) in Dubai.

She shared her personal experience and gave insight to a patient’s perspective of living with two rare endocrine conditions.

The psychological wellbeing of patients can often be overlooked when dealing with debilitating physical conditions. Jennifer hopes she has been able to shed some light on the importance of the connection between the mind and body as a whole.

Patients mental wellbeing needs to be at the forefront of professionals working in the medical and related fields.
