Support Groups

Medical research has shown that a patient's emotional and psychological well-being can play a critical role in helping the body overcome a serious illness. These small and intimate support groups help women cope with their situation by enabling them to share their feelings with others who are experiencing many of the same problems.

All groups are facilitated by professional psycho-oncologists, who focus on a particular subject each session. Groups discussions may focus on “cancer and the family”, “changing body-image’, “courage in the face of fear”and the like.
