Psychosocial Oncology Counseling Services

Individual and family counseling is offered at The Robert and Beverly Lewis Family Cancer Care Center to all cancer patients and their families. Licensed therapists specially trained in the counseling of cancer patients provide unique and effective therapy and support. This service integrates and coordinates with medical and radiation oncology treatment.

Our Goal:
To help cope with the emotions and feelings about being diagnosed and treated for cancer.

How Our Program is Different:
Psycho-oncology counseling specializes in the unique concerns of the cancer patient. Combining both family therapy and oncology issues, the therapist addresses the patient's decisions and emotions. Waiting for test results, confirming a diagnosis, coping with shock, denial, fears, dread of recurrence, anxiety, and many other issues specific to the cancer patient and their family are discussed.
