Supporting You Through Your Cancer Journey With a Healing Together Circle

A cancer diagnosis can be overwhelming, but there is help! Whether you are recently diagnosed or have been living with cancer for years, the Martin O’Neil Cancer Center at Adventist Health St. Helena may have just the thing to provide you with support and encouragement along the way.

In addition to our advanced treatment options, we offer a full complement of preventative care, support, and resources, including a Healing Together Circle for individuals living with cancer. Healing circles are safe, supportive spaces where shared experiences create opportunities for understanding, healing, and hope. This unique connection with your peers provides support for anyone experiencing cancer, no matter where you are in your cancer journey.

Each circle is a blend of sharing and silence, compassion and curiosity. Agreements ensure acceptance and confidentiality for all participants. We honor our own unique paths to healing and respect the choices of others. This healing circle is modeled after the healing circles offered as part of the Commonweal Cancer Help Program.

Our Healing Circle occurs on the first and third Wednesdays of each month, meeting from 10 to 11:30 am in the Martin O'Neil Cancer Center Patient Library. An online option is also available; just reach out to us at puccinp@ah.org to get the video link or call us at 707-967-5791.
