Emotional Support

Emotional Support

Counseling, Support Groups and Case Management from Licensed Social Workers

Despite the numerous medical treatments that are required for cancer patients, a strong emotional support network is often equally as important for cancer patients to improve their survivorship. Consequently, Cancer Care Services provides individualized help through a caring and compassionate team of trained staff and volunteers. Our licensed social workers are eager to connect cancer patients and their caregivers with helpful resources that are available to meet their financial, emotional, social and spiritual needs. These services are provided by Cancer Care Services at no cost, regardless of income.

Emotional programs are available for most ages, including children. Some of our kid-focused programs include a summer day camp, play expression/therapy, and various activities. Bilingual Social Worker/Cancer Navigators are available. For a current list of support groups and other emotional support activities, please check our activities calendar frequently.

Emotional programs help cancer patients and caregivers work through the worry, frustrations and stressors associated with cancer. To speak with a Social Worker/Cancer Navigator about the emotional programs and services available to you and your family, please call 817-921-0653.
