Cancer Conversations

You have a cancer diagnosis and people don't want to talk about it. Or they don't know how to listen. Or they say the most unhelpful things.

This peer group is for anyone post-diagnosis, whether in treatment or in remission. Because the thoughts that invade your mind shift with each test result, each treatment, each milestone, each year.

These virtual sessions are a safe place to air your questions, concerns and insights, as well as listen to others on the journey. Compassion and confidentiality, please. This is not a space to advocate for trials or to shame for treatments. We're not looking for miracle cures. We only want to help each other live each brutal and beautiful day as best we can.

Join online from the comfort of home. Participate for the full 90 minutes, or as much time as your energy allows. Joining with live video (rather than blank screen or profile pic) is required to build community and ensure privacy from spectators.

Sessions are facilitated by Cierra McNamara MSW, a palliative care counselor, grief educator, and former oncology massage therapist.
