Psyco-Oncology

At Dr. Namrata’s practice, we recognize that cancer not only affects the physical well-being of patients but also has a significant impact on their emotional and psychological health. Our specialized field of psycho-oncology focuses on addressing the unique mental health needs of individuals facing cancer. We provide comprehensive support and counseling services to help patients cope with the emotional challenges that arise during their cancer journey. Our team of experienced psychologists and mental health professionals work collaboratively with our medical experts to ensure holistic care for our patients.

Emotional Support and Counseling:

 Cancer can evoke a range of emotions, including fear, anxiety, sadness, and anger. Our psycho-oncology services offer a safe and supportive environment where patients can express their feelings and receive counseling to help them navigate these emotions. We provide compassionate guidance, coping strategies, and tools to promote emotional well-being and resilience.

Psychosocial Assessment:

 Understanding the psychosocial factors that influence a patient’s well-being is essential for providing effective support. We conduct thorough psychosocial assessments to evaluate a patient’s social, emotional, and psychological needs. This assessment helps us tailor our interventions to address specific concerns and develop personalized care plans.

Coping Strategies and Resilience Building:

We empower patients with practical coping strategies and resilience-building techniques to enhance their ability to cope with the challenges of cancer. Our team assists patients in developing adaptive coping mechanisms, such as stress management, relaxation techniques, and positive thinking, to improve their emotional well-being and overall quality of life.

Family and Caregiver Support:

Cancer affects not only the patients but also their families and caregivers. We provide support and counseling services to family members and caregivers, helping them understand the emotional impact of cancer and providing them with tools to manage their own well-being while supporting their loved ones.

Stress and Anxiety Management:

Cancer can create significant stress and anxiety. Our psycho-oncology services include evidence-based interventions to help patients manage stress and anxiety symptoms. Through various techniques such as relaxation exercises, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral therapy, we aim to alleviate distress and promote a sense of calm and emotional balance.

Support Groups and Peer Counseling:

We facilitate support groups where patients can connect with others who are going through similar experiences. These groups provide a valuable platform for sharing experiences, providing mutual support, and learning from one another’s coping strategies. In addition, peer counseling is available, allowing patients to receive guidance from individuals who have successfully navigated their own cancer journeys.

Survivorship and Life after Cancer:

Our psycho-oncology services extend beyond the treatment phase, focusing on supporting patients during survivorship and helping them adjust to life after cancer. We provide guidance on managing post-treatment challenges, dealing with uncertainties, and embracing a renewed sense of purpose and well-being.
