Welcome to the Behavioral Oncology Program by Norton Community Medical Associates. We understand that a cancer diagnosis brings about immense emotional and psychological challenges for patients and their loved ones. Our primary goal is to provide comprehensive support and resources to help you manage your emotional well-being, enhance your quality of life, and empower you throughout your cancer treatment journey.

Our Commitment to Your Well-being

At Norton Community Medical Associates, we are dedicated to prioritizing your overall well-being. We recognize that cancer not only affects the physical aspect of an individual but also impacts their mental and emotional health. Our Behavioral Oncology Program features a multidisciplinary approach, bringing together a team of experts to provide personalized and comprehensive care.

Comprehensive Support and Services

1. Individual and Group Counseling

We offer individual and group counseling sessions led by licensed therapists who specialize in supporting cancer patients. These sessions provide a safe and compassionate space for you to share your feelings and concerns, learn effective coping strategies, and gain a better understanding of your emotions throughout your cancer journey.

2. Psychoeducation and Supportive Workshops

Our program also includes informative sessions and workshops designed to educate and empower cancer patients and their families. These sessions cover various topics, such as stress management, communication skills, and self-care practices, to equip you with the necessary tools to navigate the challenges posed by cancer.

3. Mind-Body Therapies

We recognize the powerful connection between the mind and body. As part of our Behavioral Oncology Program, we offer mind-body therapies, including yoga, meditation, and relaxation techniques. These therapeutic practices can help reduce anxiety and stress, promote emotional well-being, and improve overall quality of life during cancer treatment.

4. Resource Referrals

In addition to our in-house services, we also provide resource referrals to trusted community organizations and support networks that specialize in cancer care. We understand the importance of having a strong support system and aim to connect you with valuable resources that complement our program and address your specific needs.
