Cancer
A Cancer Diagnosis is Devastating
A cancer diagnosis is not only devastating but it is life-changing. Emotions can vary from anger, shock, and disbelief to fear, anxiety, and sadness. The emotional side of cancer can feel very overwhelming not only at the beginning of the process, but also midway through treatments and even as treatments are ending. A cancer diagnosis often results in physical, emotional, and financial distress not only for the individual who has cancer, but for their loved ones as well.
Pathways to Peace understands this very difficult and painful journey. We provide supportive counseling, distress tolerance, effective coping strategies, and resources to support patients and caregivers going through cancer from diagnosis to survivorship.

Extreme Stress And Trauma
​
People who live with the aftermath of overwhelming stress, grief, and loss often experience traumatic stress reactions.
The loss of a​ loved one, domestic violence, or have ongoing job stressors such as those experienced by first responders are just a few examples.
​
Initial reactions to trauma can include exhaustion, confusion, sadness, anxiety, agitation, numbness, confusion, and shock. These are normal and serve as our body's natural reaction to often abnormal circumstances. However, short and long term exposure to traumatic stressors may become worse if left untreated.
