Help for people returning to work due to severe depression, stress, and anxiety.
Dr. Jared Pickens, an economics professor at the University of North Texas, missed in-person teaching and engaging with students and colleagues. When pandemic restrictions were lifted and he returned to the classroom, he was concerned to find that things weren’t back to “normal.” As his anxiety increased, his job satisfaction decreased. Through the WorkReturns outpatient program at Medical City Green Oaks — a one-of-its-kind program in North Texas — Dr. Pickens found the tools, confidence and coping strategies to help him enjoy teaching again.
