Counseling During Treatment

---

Counseling at this time provides a place to "put" the stuff you don't want to lay on anyone else and most likely don't want to feel in the first place.  Let's open a path for love and respect of yourself at this time and definitely build in some TLC. As well, we'll sort through the matters that arise or amplify during treatment.

While in cancer treatment, it is not uncommon to feel:

• Frustration over body changes, including hair loss;
• Angry, down, or have depressed feelings;
• Unsure who to share your true feelings with, ie: I need to be strong for my family but I'm scared, OR It hurts them to see me down, so I smile and hold it in;
• Variations in energy levels, impacting, well - everything!

I have supported over 10,000 adults and their families diagnosed with cancer. I am a Board Certified Oncology Social Worker and Breast Patient Navigator and served on Interdisciplinary Oncology Team for over 12 years. I have extensive, onsite, daily experience in providing supportive counseling to help adults move through this time.
