Questions & Experts: A Clinical Psychologist Answers Your Questions About the Mental Health Impact of a Breast Cancer Diagnosis
Oftentimes, breast cancer patients have questions and concerns about their diagnosis and their health that they are unable to get the answers to. Whether it's because of limited time with their primary healthcare provider or because they don't have access to a specialist, many times, their questions go unanswered. To address this, Canadian Breast Cancer Network has put together a Q&E: Questions and Experts series in hopes that patients are able to ask our hosted experts any questions that they may not otherwise be able to ask.
Dr. Karen Fergus is a Clinical Psychologist and Associate Professor with the Department of Psychology at York. She is cross appointed at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in the Odette Cancer Centre where she has been practicing as a clinician and researcher for 25 years. Much of her research has focused specifically on the psychosocial adjustment of women with breast cancer and their families.
