Cancer-Informed Psychotherapy

• Effective tools for the unique experiences of cancer treatment
• How to cope with uncertainty and health anxiety
• Strategies for managing pain and reducing fatigue

When a client shares a cancer diagnosis in therapy, everything shifts.

Even the most seasoned clinician can feel nervous as uncertainty and fear show up – because nothing about psychotherapy is simple when cancer is in the room.

And if you’re like most therapists, you were never trained for this.

Supporting clients through fear of the unknown isn’t the same as typical anxiety treatment … the classic tools for depression won’t improve clients’ mood when they feel hopeless and depleted … and helping clients grieve the loss of normality just isn’t standard grief work.

Add to that the medical, ethical, and existential complexities that go along with cancer – and it’s easy to feel unprepared.

That’s why Dr. Jessica Vanderlan - psychotherapy service manager at one of the nation’s top cancer hospitals - created this training where you can quickly get the essential information and strategies you need to support your clients with cancer – whether they’re newly diagnosed, navigating medical decisions, already in the midst of treatment, adjusting to life after chemotherapy, or facing a terminal diagnosis.

Packed with tools you can use right away and designed to boost your confidence, this training will give you:

• CBT and ACT techniques for cancer-specific unhelpful thoughts and uncertainty
• Strategies to support pain management and reduce the physical side effects of cancer treatment
• Clear guidance on how to collaborate with your clients’ medical team and caregivers

PURCHASE NOW! Don’t wait to learn about cancer until you’ve already encountered it in your caseload – it will be too late for the client who needs you now.
