Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to understand the feasibility and impact of integrated psychological care in outpatient gynecologic oncology clinics with the goal of creating a new standard of care. The investigators propose an intervention study comparing patient-centered outcomes (assessed by surveys) between women who receive usual care versus integrated psychological care. The investigators' objectives are to learn about the process of integration of psychological care directly into outpatient gynecologic oncology clinics and the impact of such integration on patients' well-being, presentation of symptoms, psychological functioning, coping mechanisms, awareness of support services offered, and perception of quality of care. As this is a feasibility study, aims are focused on assessing patient willingness for psychological intervention in the medical office, provider willingness to have psychologist present in clinic, and impact of psychological intervention. With such data to warrant further integration and time of psychologists in medical clinics, next steps for immediate and long-term projects may include focus on high risk populations, specific disease sites, additional provider clinics, more psychologist time spent in gynecological oncology clinics, and effectiveness of interventions with higher power. The investigators hope the results will serve as preliminary data for an integrated psychosocial care model that can be implemented in other oncology clinics.
