Kathleen Cavanaugh, RN, MS, ANP | Integrative Oncology Nurse Advocate

Meet Kathleen

I am an advocate for people with cancer.

As a nurse practitioner with 20 years of oncology experience and a cancer survivor myself, I know how challenging it is to translate medical-speak, research conventional and complementary therapies, ask the right questions, and make informed decisions about your care.

Together, we’ll create a plan and a light along the path

Receiving a cancer diagnosis turns your world upside down. You’re overloaded with information, everything becomes a time crunch, and you face major life decisions. You need sound, evidence-based guidance and support that empowers you to make the best choices for your unique situation.

Navigating Treatment

Centering around wellness education and support we will use integrative methods such as diet, exercise, and sleep to minimize side effects of treatment, as well as non-medical therapies that can alleviate feelings of anxiety, fear, and depression.

Advocacy

Helping you maximize limited time with your care team members, ask good questions, know when to seek a second opinion, and make informed decisions about your care.

Guidance

Sifting through the multitude of information about traditional and alternative therapies to create a plan that’s safe, and right for you.

Knowledge

Developing a clear understanding of your diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment plan; expected impacts on your health and well-being; and how to mitigate side effects.

Support is one click away.
