Women with Cancer

Dr. Ginsberg has an area of specialization in working with women with cancer.  She works with women with all types of cancer, at all stages.  Dr. Ginsberg has a great deal of experience and knowledge about the psychological consequences and challenges of a cancer diagnosis, from the time of diagnosis, through the active treatment stage, and into the various phases of the survivorship stage.  Each of these time periods hold unique challenges and much research has been done to demonstrate that patients who receive psychosocial support services tend to manage their emotions better, have less side effects, are more compliant with treatment, and generally feel more in control of their experience.
