Counselling Metastatic Support Group
What is Counselling Metastatic Support Group?
Once metastatic, cancer is now a story of living with a chronic disease rather than an acute short-term illness.
A return of cancer can be a very fearful event. There are often many different medical approaches to consider and taking time away from the stress of trying to make new decisions is important.
Our Counselling Metastatic Support Group provides a safe space for individuals living with metastatic cancer to share experiences, receive emotional support, and explore different strategies.
