Cancer Focused Therapy
Emotional and mental health support for cancer patients, survivors, caregivers, and professionals
Cancer affects every part of life — your relationships, your confidence, your sense of control.
Whether you’re in treatment, in recovery, or caring for someone who is, therapy offers a space to breathe, reflect, and rebuild.
As a breast-cancer survivor and licensed therapist, Susan Picart brings both clinical skill and personal insight to each session. Her work integrates CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-informed care, helping you process emotions and strengthen resilience with clarity and compassion.





How Therapy Can Help You Heal
Cancer-focused therapy is about more than coping — it’s about reclaiming your life. Together, we’ll focus on:
- Managing anxiety, fear, and uncertainty
- Processing grief and loss
- Adjusting to physical or emotional changes
- Improving communication with family or care teams
- Restoring confidence and identity after treatment
Topics We Can Explore Together
Fear of recurrence or medical trauma
- Caregiver burnout and compassion fatigue
- Survivor’s guilt and identity shifts
- Relationship and intimacy challenges
- Grief, loss, and post-treatment depression
- Reconnecting with meaning and hope
