Cancer Therapy Services for Couples

A cancer diagnosis affects the couple as a whole. Feelings of fears and concerns arise that are foreign and often difficult to process. Communication may become difficult and strained. Each person tends to not share fears or concerns as they are protecting the other. Sometimes the cancer patient doesn’t want to burden their spouse with overwhelming fears they are experiencing. Similarly, the spouse may suppresses his/her own feelings. Couples counseling will help you communicate difficult feelings and will facilitate support and unity.
