Breast Cancer Support Services
As a qualified Breast Care Nurse and a previous McGrath Breast Care Nurse I offer women supportive counselling and psychosocial support relating to their breast cancer experience. Experiencing breast cancer may raise many life issues for woman. Family and relationship issues may become of concern, prioritising treatment and self care while juggling work and other expectations, feeling unsupported is an issue for some woman, body related issues, loss and anxiety and sexuality concerns are all common experiences women speak of.
Breast Cancer Support Sessions
My sessions focus on supporting women to find new stories of hope, strength and recovery. In these sessions I use body sensitive practices such as simple yoga breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation to support women with anxiety, depressions and fears related to living with breast cancer. Gaining and maintaining wellness is also an important consideration as we explore new options and possibilities together .
With a Chronic Disease Management Plan from your GP up to 5 Medicare sessions are available.
