Cancer. You try not to let it rule you.
You tell others you are fine – and sometimes you really are. You are trying to stay positive. That voice of fear creeps in, though, and the ‘what ifs’ threaten to drive you mad. You’re usually the strong one, so asking for help is way out of your comfort zone. Who can you trust with this heavy stuff anyway? You tell yourself it’s too much to lay on anyone and you power ahead. Which works - except when it doesn’t.
I help people move through cancer. It’s a tough diagnosis physically and emotionally. The right combination of information, services and support can help increase clarity, comfort and hope. I am a Certified Oncology Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both New York and New Jersey. I bring extensive direct and specialized experience from the moment of diagnosis, through treatment, and after treatment. Let's help you move through.
