Sažetak

Psycho-oncology is an interdisciplinary scientific
and clinical field at the crossroads of oncology and
its various clinical disciplines, psychology, psychiatry,
and lifestyle-related areas. It deals with issues
of mental health in people with cancer, their
quality of life, and psychosocial factors related to
the onset of the disease and the course of treatment.
The focus of psycho-oncological care is not
only the patients themselves, but also their families
and the medical staff involved in the treatment
process. This workshop, alongside a practical
example from clinical work with patients, will
provide an overview of contemporary approaches
to the treatment of oncology patients, from pharmacological
interventions to individual and group
psychotherapeutic treatment. Psychopharmacology
is a key component of the holistic approach
in psycho-oncology and includes the treatment
of anxiety and depressive states, psychotic reactions,
and delirious states. Mental disorders may be related to the cancer itself or to the therapy
for the disease. The workshop will present relevant
knowledge and approaches in treatment and
support not only for the patient, but also for their
family, healthcare staff, and the therapist themselves,
as well as accumulated experience with the
supportive psychotherapeutic approach implemented
at the Department of Psychiatry of University
Hospital Dubrava as part of a comprehensive
psycho-oncology program. The importance of
reducing stigma among oncology patients will also
be emphasized, with special attention to specifics
related to individual cancer sites, as well as to the
impact of stigma on the psychosocial functioning
and quality of life of oncology patients.
