Abstract
Although it is well-recognized by the literature that receiving a cancer diagnosis and making treatment-related decisions can have significantly effects on the quality of life and psychological well-being of patients and significant others, improvements in cancer treatments and early detection have contributed to increasing number of cancer survivors. This change in the cancer continuum represents surely a challenge; yet it creates a unique opportunity for those involved in the psychosocial oncology field to dedicate their work to the creation of interventions and treatment approaches able to meet the multiple needs of those living with cancer
