Therapy for Caregiving
Are you supporting someone with cancer - but feeling emotionally worn out yourself?
Balancing caregiving with work, family, and your own well-being can feel like too much. You might feel helpless, stretched thin, or even guilty for having your own needs while caring for someone else.
At Cape Clarity, we offer therapy for caregivers in Cape Coral who are supporting a loved one through cancer. You deserve space to be supported, too.
What You Might Be Feeling
- Overwhelmed by responsibility and emotional pressure
- Helpless watching someone you love go through pain
- Guilty for feeling frustrated or needing a break
- Disconnected from your own identity, goals, or routines
Research shows that nearly half of caregivers for people with cancer experience anxiety or depression. That weight is real—and you don’t have to carry it alone.
How Therapy Can Help
Therapy provides a nonjudgmental space to focus on you—your feelings, your boundaries, and your emotional health. Therapy can help you:
- Manage stress and emotional overload
- Learn tools to avoid burnout and preserve your energy
- Reconnect with your needs, values, and goals
- Navigate the uncertainty and stay grounded through it all
What to Expect in Therapy
Therapy is tailored to your unique caregiving role. Your sessions may include:
- Skills to communicate clearly with family or medical teams
- Strategies to protect your mental health in an emotionally intense time
- Support in balancing caregiving with your own life
This isn’t about choosing between being there for them or for yourself - it’s about being able to do both with more strength and stability.
