The Macmillan Cancer Psychological Support (CaPS) Team offers counselling, clinical psychology and liaison psychiatry input and is made up of experienced clinicians who are able to work with patients to address their psychological and emotional needs using a range of interventions.  You may find you would benefit from a few consultations with a counselor or clinical psychologist to help to get you ‘back on track’ if you feel you are struggling, or you may benefit from a course of an evidence-based talking therapy intervention.  Alternatively if talking therapies are not right for you, you may find you would benefit from a different level of support (e.g. if you have pre-existing mental health difficulties and/or are already taking psychiatric medication) and seeing a liaison psychiatrist may be more appropriate.
