Psychologist Vanessa Garty
12/08/2026
11:00 am - 12:00 pm
This month, we are pleased to welcome Vanessa Carty, an oncology psychologist from Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre, who will join us for a supportive and practical discussion about managing emotions throughout the cancer journey.
A cancer diagnosis and treatment can bring many different feelings, including fear, uncertainty, sadness, anger and overwhelm. During this session, Vanessa will explore ways to understand and manage these emotional responses, with a particular focus on scanxiety and the stress that can arise before scans, while waiting for results and during follow-up appointments.
Vanessa will share practical strategies to help calm the nervous system, manage difficult thoughts and feel more supported during times of uncertainty. There will also be time for questions and open discussion.
