Wellness Centers

With higher rates of stress, burnout, symptoms of anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions, wellness centers are a priority for schools and hospitals. For the past 30 years, LAS has prioritized mental health and well-being on university campuses and within major medical centers.

LAS Founder, Loren Deutsch, is a licensed clinical social worker and educational therapist. She designed the LAS Medical Coaching Model in response to a growing demand for integrative support services amidst the culture of silence and stigma that have surrounded mental health conditions and learning challenges throughout the years in medical education.

Loren consults with faculty, administrators, and staff, often to address issues that include emotional fatigue and burnout among students and early-career physicians. Below are recent titles of groups and workshops that LAS designed for current Wellness Centers:

“Contending with Burnout in Medical Education”
“Personal Wellbeing for Residents”
“Remediation and ‘Pre-mediation’ – Addressing Gaps in MedEd”
“Dealing with Failure”
“Essential Ingredients for High-Stakes Exam Prep: A Research-Based Approach for Learning”

LAS was instrumental in my success as a physician and during my training. Board exams are flawed in that they cater to a one size fit all model. LAS helped level the playing field.
