Cancer Support Groups and Individual Cancer Counseling
Cancer Support Groups
Our Cancer Support Groups are facilitated by licensed mental health professionals (not peer lead groups) who specialize in supportive cancer care. The groups are designed to allow those with cancer, as well as their family and friends, to share concerns, information, resources, and most of all, emotional and social support.
Many options to Support People with Cancer
- All-Cancer Support Group
- Newly Diagnosed Breast Cancer Support Groups
- Early Stage Breast Cancer Group
- Advanced Stage Breast Cancer Support Group
- Gynecological Cancer Support Group

Support for Cancer Caregivers and Families
“It is such a comfort to be with others who truly understand my experience in a way that my loving family and friends cannot. I learn so much from my fellow group members, of both a practical and profound nature. I give and receive support.”
– Kathy MacDonald, member of a People with Cancer Group
Networking Groups for BOTH People with Cancer & Caregivers
Kids & Family Cancer Support Groups
- “Kids’ and Teens’ Circle” Children’s Support Group
- Family Dinner & Support Groups – for children with cancer and their families (bilingual program)

Individual Counseling
Many of our participants find Individual counseling to be extremely helpful during their cancer journey.
We offer short-term Individual Counseling (approximately 8 sessions) offered to persons diagnosed with cancer and/or their families.
As with Cancer Support Groups, your individualized counseling journey begins by first attending a Newcomer Welcome Orientation.
