Macmillan Cancer Psychology Service Lincolnshire - referral

The Macmillan Cancer Psychology Service Lincolnshire is a specialist psychology service. It is part of the Psycho-Oncology Physical Health Psychology speciality.

Psycho-oncology is concerned with the psychological, social and behavioural aspects of the experience of cancer. It can be difficult to cope with a cancer diagnosis, the treatment process and life after cancer.

Our service is designed to offer psychological therapy for adults living with, and beyond, cancer across Lincolnshire.

Our team is made up of Clinical Psychologists and a Health Psychologist.

Our service works with patients, families, carers and staff to identify and address any challenges with coping with cancer. We work in partnership with other agencies to deliver a service which specialises in helping people with the most complex needs.

Who is the service for?

The service is for adults who are receiving support from cancer services in Lincolnshire.

We offer one-to-one therapy sessions, either face-to-face or via video call, to patients with all types of cancer.
