Breast and Gynecological Cancers Patient Support Group

Description

CancerCare is offering a free, 8-week live support group for people diagnosed with breast cancer or gynecological cancers in New York and New Jersey who are receiving a form of active treatment (including surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, hormonal treatments and/or advanced cancer treatment). This group will provide a safe place to exchange support, get information and receive guidance while discussing the unique challenges of living with a cancer diagnosis.

Our Groups:

• Provide cancer-focused support
• Reduce feelings of loneliness, anxiety and distress
• Help increase feelings of hope and empowerment
• Assist you in learning new ways of coping
• Help you improve communication with your medical team and loved ones
• Provide you with practical information about treatment
• Provide you with resources in your community
