Online Psycho-Oncology
Counselling
For people with oncological conditions and their loved ones — timely, confidential and accessible from wherever you are.
Also available during a hospital stay or between medical appointments.
When a diagnosis changes so much
A diagnosis, a recurrence or ongoing treatment can deeply affect familiar life. Examinations, medical decisions, surgery, chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy or other treatments can lead many people into a new and initially unfamiliar situation.
Even though modern diagnostics and treatment options can achieve a great deal today, the emotional burden often remains considerable. People affected and their loved ones may face uncertainty, anxiety, inner restlessness, sleep difficulties, exhaustion, anger, helplessness or withdrawal.
Psycho-oncological support can help to make sense of these burdens, strengthen inner stability and gradually find your own way of dealing with illness and treatment.
What psycho-oncological support can help with
Psycho-oncological counselling can ease the burden in different stressful situations, provide orientation and help you regain more inner stability.
Anxiety, restlessness and uncertainty
When thoughts keep circling, sleep becomes difficult or medical findings, examinations and decisions feel overwhelming.
Coping with illness
When a diagnosis, recurrence, physical changes or medical treatments need to be emotionally processed.
Emotional strain during treatment
When chemotherapy, immunotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, side effects or hospital stays become psychologically demanding.
Exhaustion and withdrawal
When energy is low, contact with others becomes more difficult or you begin to feel alone with the situation.
Conversations, decisions and orientation
When medical consultations stay with you, questions remain open or important decisions need to be sorted through inwardly.
Family and loved ones
When partners, family members or people close to you are also affected and need support, orientation or relief.
Psycho-oncological counselling
What may be important in counselling
An oncological condition often affects far more than the body. Diagnosis, treatment, examinations and medical decisions can change inner balance, relationships, everyday life and the sense of safety.
Psycho-oncological counselling offers a protected space to understand and sort through emotional burdens, regain orientation step by step and strengthen inner stability and personal agency.
Focus areas may include
- Stabilisation after a diagnosis or distressing medical findings
- Coping with anxiety, inner restlessness and exhaustion
- Orientation around decisions and medical consultations
- Activating resources and strengthening self-efficacy
- Relaxation, imagery or medical hypnosis
- Involving and supporting loved ones
