Community Support

All groups are provided at no charge to anyone affected by cancer, including caregivers, family members and friends.

Connecting with a support group can make a real difference, helping to ease the three biggest challenges that often come with a cancer diagnosis.
Whether you join an in-person group or an online community, the simple act of connecting with others who understand creates real, lasting relief. Many describe it as one of the most helpful parts of their cancer experience, not just emotionally, but in helping them feel stronger and more supported overall.
 
Whether you have been diagnosed or you're close to someone who has, Cancer Support Community has options that fit your needs, without pressure.
 
 Our individual counseling and all support and networking groups are led by licensed, professionals, all at no cost to participate. 

Individual Counseling

Individual counseling through Cancer Support Community Central Ohio offers participants one-on-one time with a mental health professional who has expertise in helping people express their thoughts, fears and emotions.

Couples or family counseling allows loved ones to sit down with a cancer counselor to talk about relationship or family issues related to the diagnosis and treatment. Please call 614.884.HOPE (4673) to schedule a time to meet with a counselor.
