Jean Rowe is a licensed clinical social worker whose background includes over 15 years in the oncology space, primarily working with young adults affected by breast cancer. At Cactus Cancer Society, she serves as guest faculty of several programs as a Certified Journal Therapist. Jean’s original programs include themes around reclaiming intimacy after cancer, addressing burnout and compassion fatigue, journal drop-ins to temper the triggers of everyday life and coping through the holidays. Grounded in all of them is the importance of self-care. She is honored to work with Cactus Cancer Society and all whom they serve. You can connect with Jean here or at jean@cactuscancer.org.

Write Now With Jean Rowe is a monthly blog initative. Nothing in this program constitutes psychotherapy, nor does it establish a therapist-client relationship.
