We’re excited to invite you to the third module of WellRounds, a new virtual learning series created by Sarah Grimmer, PhD, designed especially for physician families.
Module 3 : When the Helper Hurts - Recognizing Depression in Physicians and Their Families
Virtual Discussion Groups
Wednesday, November 12, 2025 12:00pm
Wednesday, November 12, 2025 8:00pm
Drawing on her original research and personal experience as a physician spouse, Dr. Grimmer explores how the stress and burnout often seen in medical professionals can impact the entire family system. Through this course, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the signs of burnout—not just in physicians, but in partners and children—and learn practical, evidence-based strategies to foster resilience, protect emotional wellbeing, and reconnect as a family.
The WellRounds series includes:
- Short, self-paced video lessons
- A downloadable discussion guide and reflection worksheet for each module
- Optional virtual discussion groups (daytime and evening sessions available)
- Online forum in the members only website
- Tools to help families navigate the challenges of living in medicine with more connection and clarity
Registration is required to access the course materials and join a discussion group. Participation is open to anyone in a physician family—whether you’re married to a medical student, resident, attending, or retired physician.
When you register, you will receive a confirmation email with links to the video to start watching right away or anytime you want, discussion guide and reflection worksheets and discussion group registration. You will need to register for a discussion group.
