At Look Good Feel Better we believe that cancer care needs to treat the whole person, including her well-being and the quality of life of the people that are affected.

It’s easy to forget how much of our identity is related to our physical appearance – things like hair and body image can be a powerful part of that. Cancer affects this at a time when a woman may be feeling vulnerable in many other ways.

Our workshop shows women certain steps they can take so they can look good, feel better and get closer to the person they were before they began fighting this debilitating disease. It takes one thing off the table at a time when there are so many other fears that a woman may be facing.

I have completed research studies to give a voice to people’s experiences and perspectives living with a cancer diagnosis, treatment and survivorship. Another research study shared insights on prioritizing psychosocial and emotional recovery as well as coping and survivorship to support people with breast cancer in collaboration with community partnerships.

My community of practice focuses on health promotion and well-being of people living with cancer and caregivers in urban and rural communities being involved with community partnership.

My work through the cancer care research is comprised of health and quality of life of citizens and ethnocultural groups with a particular focus working with people for developing culturally appropriate person-centered care.
