Snippet from Eventbrite: "Fear of cancer recurrence is one of the most common concerns for people after a cancer diagnosis, and a common reason why survivors seek psychological help or support. Researchers define it as "fear, worry, or concern relating to the possibility that cancer will come back."

In this session, we’ll talk how to deal with fear and worry relating to the possibility that the cancer will come back.

We’ll review simple exercises to help you find balance and calm and then focus on communication tips to assist you in having a productive conversation about this fear with loved ones as well as the doctors and nurses on your cancer team.

At the end of the session, you will walk away with more understanding and strategies that make this more manageable."

Who is this for? Anyone who has finished cancer treatment, wants to support their mental wellbeing, and would like to connect with others who’ve had cancer.
