Psychiatry Clinic
A cancer diagnosis brings a range of emotions: anxiety, depression, grief and fatigue, not only for the cancer patient, but their loved ones as well. But help is available. M. D. Anderson's Psychiatry Clinic provides a range of personalized support services to cancer patients and their caregivers, to help maximize quality of life. We can help you deal with the emotional consequences of cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Psychiatry services include:
- Symptom assessment and medical management
- Stress management
- Cognitive behavior therapy
- Sexual counseling
- Substance abuse assessment, referral and follow-up
- Therapy for families, couples, children and adolescents
- A support group for caregivers
When the burden is heavy, let the Psychiatry Clinic help ease the load.
