COMPANION Counseling

The journey of cancer, whether experienced as a patient or care partner, is challenging. It's unpredictable, ever-changing and evokes strong emotions. We offer counseling services unique to those challenged by cancer. They are a combination of generous listening and compassionate presence for wherever you are in your journey. We call it Companion Counseling. This model of counseling provides support and caring as you experience pain, accept your new realities, and look for ways to heal and grow. We create a positive, nonjudgmental space for you to BE, and in that space is where healing occurs.
To schedule an appointment, call 712.325.8970, or email carolyn@wingsofhope.org.

DISCOVERY Circles

Discovery Circles are offered around a topic of interest in a nurturing environment. This concept allows for more in-depth exploration of topics and time to practice the skills needed to make lifestyle changes. You can explore ways to deepen your capacity to heal, find meaning in both challenges and joys, and access your own inner guidance to better understand where the greatest healing can occur.
