- Psycho Oncology
Feeling distressed when you or your loved one is diagnosed with cancer is often a
part of the cancer journey. At times these feelings of distress continue to linger
or increase and often interfere with treatment and overall quality of life. Thus,
the discipline of Psycho-oncology focuses on understanding the psycho-social and
psycho-biological aspects of cancer to reduce psychological distress and improve
quality of life, leading to a better functional and emotional well-being. The
Psycho-Oncology Services (POS) at Cytecare offers professional psychological support
in the form of psychological counselling, psychotherapy and psycho-education to
patients and their loved ones on the emotional challenges that may arise at all
stages of the cancer journey.
