Receiving a cancer diagnosis, undergoing treatment, managing side effects, and living with the fear and uncertainty that cancer brings can all feel incredibly overwhelming. Coping with this emotional rollercoaster is challenging, and you may not always feel equipped to navigate it successfully. In this workshop for young adult cancer survivors (YACS), we will discuss how cancer can affect your mental health and how your body responds to stress. Then we’ll explore healthy ways to cope with intense emotions and take some time to begin developing individual mental wellness plans that you can use in your daily life.
Please Note: This program is open to young adult cancer survivors in their 20s, 30s and early 40s.
