Navigating Cancer: Research Supported Tools to Help You Cope with the Emotional and Physical Impact of Cancer offers a comprehensive roadmap for managing the extraordinary challenges posed by cancer. Dr. Jennifer Kilkus draws on her extensive expertise in psycho-oncology to offer accessible, evidence-based strategies that help people with cancer manage the psychological and physical impacts of a cancer diagnosis and treatment. This groundbreaking resource recognises that cancer affects the whole person and provides practical tools to improve your quality of life.

You'll discover:

  • A holistic biopsychosocial approach addressing emotional and physical cancer-related concerns in one comprehensive resource.
  • Integrated techniques from several evidence-based frameworks such as cognitive behavioural therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behaviour therapy.
  • A patient-friendly writing style that makes complex psychological concepts accessible without requiring professional guidance.
  • Practical exercises and examples in each chapter that you can put into practice immediately.

Written specifically for the most common concerns experienced by millions of people with cancer worldwide, Navigating Cancer is a supportive and authoritative companion for everyone interested in more effectively managing the impact of this disease. Whether you're newly diagnosed, undergoing treatment, or navigating life after cancer, you'll discover proven strategies to cope more effectively, prevent symptoms from worsening, and enhance the quality of your life.
