I agree with this. The minute you step out of the hospital/cancer center network, it gets risky. You really need someone who understands the experience professionally, without personally having had the experience. When I finished treatment 5 years ago, I reached out to a therapist who I thought would work. Turns out she was a triple positive bc survivor, and we ended up talking about her cancer in the sessions. Last year I was diagnosed and treated for a gyn cancer. Once again after surgery was done, I reached out to another therapist who I started seeing. Unfortunately she has been diagnosed with bc but is pretending it's not happening, therefore I never feel comfortable talking about cancer; continuing in this would necessitate denying a key part of my history. Neither approach was helpful to me. In person support groups are also tremendously helpful. It's a lot to take in at first. It is wise to seek help navigating everything. Social workers/therapists on site can be extremely helpful. I found this to be the case even in my little "cottage hospital" near home. I wish everyone the very best in all ways.
