PRISM

Promoting Resilience In Stress Management

About

PRISM (Promoting Resilience In Stress Management) is an intervention that has been adapted from other, longer types of interventions that have worked well for patients like you.

We have trialed it in adolescent and young adult cancer and diabetes patients, caregivers of youth with a chronic or serious illness, healthcare providers, and other groups at risk for stress and refined it based on their feedback. The whole thing is designed to help you develop several skills that we think are important parts of resilience: managing stress, setting goals, catching negative self-talk, and finding meaning from adversity.
