Cancer can, at times, leave you feeling stressed and overwhelmed. Counselling can help by giving you the opportunity to talk through problems and learn new ways of coping. There are a range of places you may be able to obtain support and counselling, depending on your needs and where you live.

The Cancer Council Helpline 13 11 20 (toll free) can provide you with information about services and support groups.  Our Helpline can also refer you to The Cancer Council Queensland's Cancer Counselling Service which is a free and confidential cancer counselling service that is available to all people in Queensland who would like help coping with cancer, either by telephone or face-to-face in Brisbane. Your doctor, treatment centre, or health care professional may also be able to advise you about  local support services and may provide you with a referral.
