In Breast Cancer, Dr. Suzanne M. Miller demonstrates her approach to counselling women with breast cancer. The goal of her cognitive-social approach is to help women with the many challenges associated with treatment for breast cancer.
In this session, Dr. Miller helps a woman with her fears surrounding the diagnosis and treatment of the disease, gives her strategies for better communication with her health care team, and counsels her on the conflicting needs of her and her husband.
