Many people find great value in being part of a group led by an experienced professional.
Since each person has somewhat different needs, we offer a variety of groups. Some groups are like a class while others provide greater opportunity for self-expression, feedback and providing and receiving support. We encourage everyone to try a group experience and to attend several meetings to determine if it is helpful. There is a growing body of information that indicates that support groups help patients to improve the quality of their lives. Many patients experience a reduction in anxiety, depression, and improved psychological well-being and ability to actively cope with cancer.
