Helping you recover from treatment and navigate survivorship
Cancer Recovery
Cancer impacts two in five Canadians during their lifetime (cancer.ca). Being diagnosed with cancer and undergoing treatment is an intensely stressful health change that is beyond one’s control. In response to a cancer diagnosis, you may have experienced shock/crisis, uncertainty, reduced quality of life, stigma, grief & loss, changes in your perception of yourself and body, and multiple adjustments. Dealing with cancer can cause intense emotions and grief reactions. 35% to 45% of all cancer patients experience significant emotional distress at some point (bccancer.bc.ca).
Living with cancer can have a ripple effect on your self concept, personal relationships, work, identity, body image, physical capacity, coping ability, and more.
If you’ve completed cancer treatment, you may find yourself asking some big questions about the way forward. ‘Now what?’ is a question many cancer survivors consider. You may find that the end of treatment is a new beginning into uncharted territory. The cancer journey often prompts a re-evaluation of priorities, values, and goals. At Sacred Circle Counselling, I will assist you in processing the experiences of your cancer journey through a compassionate lens. I support you with reconnecting with all the dimensions of self to facilitate healing and developing a holistic life-after-cancer recovery plan.
