The Cancer Coaching Experience: 
​Cancer wellness IS possible.  Cancer is a life changing event that affects the entire family.  Treatment decisions, relationship changes, body changes, the roller coaster of emotions.....all of this takes its toll on families.  Finding a therapist who has been specifically trained and credentialed in this type of support is crucial during this time.  Anyone can talk to you about how you FEEL about your cancer.  An oncology trained social worker can connect you the RESOURCES that you need so that you can experience CANCER WELLNESS.   I became a Board Certified Oncology Social Worker early in my career and now work 25 hours weekly as an Oncology Community Navigator.  I stay current in research and treatment, cancer resources,  as well as the special issues of cancer survivorship.   I have completed 8 hours of training in Insurance and Financial Cancer Navigation in an effort to assist my clients in avoiding the FINANCIAL TOXICITY of a cancer diagnosis.   When appropriate, I utilize Mindfulness Based Cancer Recovery techniques that have been proven to lessen the emotional and physical impact of cancer on the patient and on the caregiver.   
I was the Clinical Director of the St. Louis Affiliate of the Cancer Support Community for 5 years and served on their BOD for 2 years.  I continue my work with CSC as a  Community Navigator on their national helpline.  I trained with the Live Strong Foundation in Texas,  the American Cancer Society, the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine and hold a Yoga4Cancer Certification as a Registered Yoga Teacher.   I've facilitated several I Can Cope support groups and a pilot project for Cancer patients and their spouses.   I asssisted in the development of many of the integrative  wellness programs that are still present in major hospitals in the St. Louis area.   As a 2 decade  survivor and my role in co-piloting my husband through a chronic cancer, I have a unique perspective on the needs of patients and their families.
