with Erin Price, LICSW, OSW-C & Joslyn Trovati, MSW, LICSW, OSW-C
This group is designed for cancer survivors who have completed their primary cancer treatment(s) and are now either post-treatment or on maintenance medication (such as hormonal therapy). Cancer can be emotionally and physically draining — many times we aren’t able to fully process the experience until after treatment is over and we are trying to get back to our “normal” lives. The struggle and expectation to find “normal” again can also be an overwhelming process. This group is a space where you can talk openly about these issues and process the trauma of cancer with other survivors.
The Survivorship Support Group will meet Monthly on the 2nd Tuesday from 6:30-7:30pm ET.
