The aims of this pilot study are to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of a brief psychoeducational intervention for participants with cancer who are transitioning from active treatment to surveillance. The research study procedures include screening for eligibility. This study consists of 2 parts. It is expected that about 45 people will take part in this research study. In the first part of this study, about 5 participants will complete survey questions and receive a 5-session program. In the second part of this study, about 40 participants will complete 2 surveys, and then will be randomly assigned to receive the 5-session program or to receive one study session (control). These sessions will focus on providing targeted support related to life after cancer treatment. The sessions will focus on skills for coping with uncertainty, managing symptoms, improving social support, and other topics important to the individual.
