Our first guest on this episode is counseling psychologist Dr. Camilla Nonterah, who discusses the importance of understanding and supporting transplant patients from both biological and psychosocial perspectives. She also reflects on the impact COVID is having on the mental health of transplant patients. During this episode we also hear from Barbara, John and Ed from the Florida Organ Transplant Association, who share with us their observations and concerns about the challenges of living alongside COVID as a transplant recipient.

Dr. Nonterah is Assistant Professor of Health Psychology at the University of Richmond in Virginia. A counseling psychologist by training, Dr. Nonterah is an expert in the psychosocial aspects of chronic illness by examining health disparities and health equity, health behaviors, treatment seeking, and mental health associated with end-stage organ disease and solid organ transplantation. She is also a proponent of positive psychology.

The Florida Organ Transplant Association's mission is to support the transplant community through forums to provide information and financial support for patients, caregivers and organ donor families, educate the community at large on the importance of organ donation, and fund transplant research.

With podcast producer and host Rolf Taylor.
