This illness can also place a strain on a couple's relationship. However, couples who are able to provide effective support to one another are more likely to adapt well. Focusing on the couple as a unit can promote effective coping for both patients and their partners . \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis couples-focused group program aims to improve a couple's functioning as a \"team\" and provides a supportive environment for couples facing similar breast cancer-related issues. Over the course of six sessions, couples learn support and communication skills, as well as techniques to manage stress and enhance intimacy. Modeling by group leaders and other couples facilitates skill acquisition. With continued use, the skills learned in group can have long-term benefits for couples . \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis guide, along with the corresponding workbook, provides all the information needed to implement this group program.
