Groups
Coping with Cancer for Women Age 25-45

This group will explore topics important to younger women navigating the cancer experience such as (but not limited to) talking to children about their cancer, relationship concerns during the cancer experience, body image and sexual concerns, juggling career, family, and cancer treatment, and any other issues group members feel are relevant. This is a therapy group and not didactic. Group members will be exploring their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors related to topics in a non-judgmental, warm, and supportive atmosphere facilitated by psychologist. The goal of the group is to improve coping, reduce stress, and establish supportive connections. 8 week session meeting once a week.

Coping With Life Transitions and Change

Are you in the midst of divorce, separation, or newly married? Have your children gone off to college and you're now an "empty nester"? Are you starting a new job, new career, or had a recent loss of employment? Are you a new parent? Has a medical condition or injury changed your functioning? If you answered yes to any of these questions then you'll want to attend Coping with Life Transitions and Change. My goal is to help you to feel less anxious about change and turn upheaval into growth.
