DBT Skills in Coping with Cancer

Please join Elizabeth Cohn Stuntz, LCSW-R, as she addresses the psychological and emotional impact of a cancer diagnosis. Stuntz will talk about how she and Marsha Linehan (developer of dialectical behavior therapy) apply DBT to cancer to help manage emotions and balance hope with uncertainty. She will also discuss strategies to make constructive decisions, communicate with loved ones, colleagues and health care providers, as well as ways to live meaningfully. This presentation will take place during the Queens Support Group.
