Abstract
This workshop explains several theoretical frameworks for fear of
recurrence, followed by the provision of training in methods to reduce the fear of recurrence in terms of attentional focus, mindfulness
training, cognitive and meta-cognitive strategies, as well as education
and encouragement strategies for screening and monitoring of cancer
recurrence. Both clinicians and researchers will benefit from this
workshop. Although framed in the cancer context, the theories and
strategies are relevant to any disease with a risk of relapse or progression.
