Expert Insight Session: Mindfulness in Cancer Survivorship — Practical Tools for Patients’ Stress Relief

In this Expert Insight Session, we focused on how clinicians can use mindfulness-based approaches in survivorship care to help patients manage stress, emotional distress, and the ongoing uncertainty that can follow treatment. While mindfulness is widely discussed, many providers still ask the same practical questions: What should I recommend? How do I introduce it? What’s realistic for patients?

Our guests, Dr. Kelly Scherger, PhD (Psychologist) and Kathy Therber (Yoga Instructor & Cancer Survivor), shared a clinician-friendly framework and practical tools that providers can integrate into care plans and patient education. The conversation covered how to introduce mindfulness in a trauma-informed way, how to match tools to patient needs, and how to support adherence with simple, time-efficient practices.
