Lo anterior debe ser atendido desde el primer momento, ya que pueden repercutir en la salud de la persona.
Por otro lado, desde la posición de la Terapia de la Aceptación y el Compromiso (ACT), el psicólogo brindará ayuda a los pacientes que deben asumir aspectos de su vida que no pueden controlar, como el diagnóstico de cáncer, su temor a la muerte o la sensación de ansiedad. También ayudará a encontrar las actividades que sean valiosas para la persona, con el objetivo de que sus metas y aspiraciones no se paralicen durante el proceso de la enfermedad.

Postgraduate Certificate in Psychological Treatments in Cancer and Third Generation Therapies
.
Psychological Treatments in Cancer and Third Generation Therapies focuses on treating the emotional impact that cancer diagnosis and treatment can have on patients and their families. This treatment is based on the cognitive-behavioral therapy model and third-generation therapies, which focus on identifying and modifying dysfunctional patterns of thinking and behavior that may be contributing to emotional symptoms, such as anxiety, depression and stress.
Psychological treatment in cancer and third-generation therapies is accomplished through a structured assessment and treatment process that begins with a detailed evaluation of the patient and his or her personal and family experiences related to the disease. Once the emotional impact of the disease is understood, a patient-specific treatment plan is developed that includes interventions such as cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, problem-solving therapy and relationship-focused therapy.
During psychological treatment, the therapist works with the patient to identify and change unrealistic or negative beliefs and thoughts that may be contributing to emotional symptoms, such as hopelessness and lack of control. In addition, the patient is taught techniques for coping with stress, such as deep breathing and progressive muscle relaxation. Emotional support is also offered to patients and their families to help them cope with this disease.
Third-generation therapies, which include acceptance and commitment therapy, value commitment therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy, among others, can also be used to help patients find meaning and purpose in their lives, and value what is important to them.
