Experience-sharing group
The In-Between
Between two treatments,
Between two medical appointments,
A space for you
What is “In-Between”?
A place, a moment, a space in between, designed to welcome anyone who has received a cancer diagnosis — whether before, during, after or without treatment (chemotherapy, hormone therapy, radiotherapy, etc.).
Some may describe it as a peer support or experience-sharing group. And that’s true. But it’s more than that: a unique place. An “in-between” … between two medical appointments, between two treatments, perhaps also between two silences.
A space for those who wish to speak, share, but also for those who wish to remain silent and simply listen.
In-Between is also a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment. You are welcomed with respect.
You can consult our charter below.
Why come to In-Between?
To find support
To speak about yourself or remain silent
To listen to others
To get to know yourself better through illness
To meet (others)
To support one another
To (re)find meaning
When?
Every first Thursday of the month

Charter of In-Between
- Respect the confidentiality of the group
What is shared within the group stays within the group. - Respect time
The group starts at 5:00 p.m. - Respect, kindness and non-judgement between all participants
- Respect opinions that differ from your own
- Respect anonymity for those who wish it
- Everyone may speak or remain silent
- Do not give direct advice to others
- Listen when someone is speaking
- Speak in the “I” form, about yourself and your own journey
- A few practical guidelines “as a good host”: no phone use during the group, put your phone on silent, do not leave the group halfway through, respect everyone’s turn to speak …
- For all questions regarding medication or treatment, your oncologist remains your only point of reference
