Counseling Services
The Regional Cancer Center is pleased to offer the counseling services
of Rebecca Needy, MA, LPC. As a licensed professional counselor, Rebecca
is here to support your emotional needs as you cope with the impact and
changes that result from a cancer diagnosis, as you undergo medical treatment,
and as you become a survivor.
Are you experiencing any of the following?
- Feeling overwhelmed and not coping well with the diagnosis
- Having difficulty adjusting to your diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis
- Anxious about how your life is or how it may change
- Anxious about the future and concerns about the possibility of cancer recurrence
- Changes in intimacy, sexuality, and relationships
- Having difficulty in talking to children, family, and friends about your diagnosis
- Stress in caring for a loved one
Rebecca facilitates compassionate patient-centered care to:
- Manage stress and reduce anxiety and depression.
- Help patients manage strong emotions.
- Increase life-coping and problem-solving skills.
- Promote hope for a healthy future.
- Teach mind-body and contemplative practices using mindfulness.
Rebecca offers individual, couple, caretaker, or family counseling services at no cost to you and you do not require a referral from a provider. Counseling services are provided in person or over the phone/video. She is available for initial consultations and ongoing therapeutic services for up to five appointments. Sessions are typically one hour. Rebecca is happy to support a transition to a community therapist if further assistance is needed beyond the five sessions.
