Presented by Juliann Halvorsen, LMFT
In this seminar you will learn concepts and practices when it comes to working with cancer patients and their loved ones. This focuses on newly diagnosed to end-of-life issues for adults. Topics include patient advocacy, client/therapist experience, existential issues and coping skills. Demographics and cultural competency is also included. This seminar is appropriate for anyone entering the oncology field as an advocate or social worker and also for anyone in private practice taking on a client with a cancer diagnosis.
Clinicians attending will gain an understanding of their own strengths when a client is faced with a cancer diagnosis, become more aware of their own personal and professional triggers, as well as integrate appropriate skills the client can use in times of stress.
