Wendy von Wiederhold, PhD - Molly Saeger, MFT - Amy Wilner, PsyD - Natalie Compagni Portis, PsyD. Because medical conditions affect more than the body, and emotional health involves more than the mind. The therapists at Beyond Coping provide psychotherapy to patients, caregivers, parents, children, teens, and couples who are grappling with a recent diagnosis, life altering treatment, bodily changes, or end of life issues.

Most of these resources are free for cancer patients and their families. We are in the process of building out this section of our website and are always updating. We hope to add soon important resources here for those dealing with illnesses and conditions other than cancer. If you know of a resource that we haven't included and you think we should, please let us know.

Our mission at Beyond Coping is to help people deal with the psychological consequences of physical conditions ranging from cancer to infertility, chronic pain to acute injury, and more.

Why seek psychotherapy when you're already overwhelmed with a significant diagnosis and its treatment, or caring for a loved one?
Because health is about more than the body.
When you confront significant illness, receive a life-altering diagnosis, face end-of-life choices, or have a spouse, parent, child, friend, or loved one you're trying to support, your emotional life is inevitably affected.
We're here to help.
News of a significant medical diagnosis tends to stir up a lot of emotions; it's common to feel sad, angry, scared, anxious, depressed, and more.
Whether acute or chronic, terminal or ambiguous, and pre- or post-diagnosis, medical conditions both cause and are affected by psychological processes; the interplay of various conditions in each arena can result in negative or positive outcomes in both.
We provide assistance for patients as they think through medical options and navigate health-care decisions.
We offer phone, teleconferencing, or in-person consultation to physicians and other professionals seeking insight into patients experiencing emotional difficulties, or whose family members present obstacles to providing the patient with the care he or she deserves.
Fees and payment schedules are established between individual clinicians and patients.
Like a great many therapists, we do not accept insurance directly, and we generally have no direct contact with insurance companies.
We will, however, provide information to patients that they can choose to share with their insurer.
This might include an itemized invoice with all the necessary codes and numbers for reimbursement, or more detailed documentation that an insurer might request.
We are considered out-of-network providers for most PPO plans.
We maintain this list of resources for patients and their families and offer them here in order to save you time and energy.
We update the list periodically, adding and deleting listings.
We don't mean to suggest this list is complete, and if you know of a resource we haven't included and you think we should, please let us know.
