Pen and paper: a new tool for cancer recovery?
NCT ID NCT07567157
First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026
Summary
This study explores whether a type of writing called 'compassionate expressive writing' can help people living with or after cancer feel better emotionally and physically. About 50 adults who have experienced body changes from cancer or its treatment will be asked to write for 20 minutes in four sessions. Researchers will compare this approach to standard expressive writing to see if it boosts self-compassion, quality of life, and overall well-being.
