Clinical Psychology

The Psychology Team consist of a range of professionals who help people who are suffering from emotional problems after a cancer diagnosis. They can offer a variety of approaches that are tailored to fit your specific emotional needs. They are trained to encourage you to talk about your difficulties, listen to you and get a full understanding of your problems.

It is very common for people to feel loss, fear, worry, frustration or sadness following a diagnosis or when undergoing treatment. You might also be struggling with coming to terms with body changes or finding relationships hard. Once an understanding of your difficulties has been established, your therapist can help you develop more effective coping strategies to help you move forward and live a valued life alongside your physical health difficulties.
