transplant psychology

Transplant psychology focuses on supporting individuals before and after organ transplantation. It addresses the emotional, psychological, and social challenges patients face, such as dealing with illness, hope, uncertainty, and adapting to lifestyle changes. Psychologists help patients manage anxiety, depression, or stress related to the transplant process, and assist with building resilience and adjusting to new health realities. The goal is to enhance overall well-being, ensure successful recovery, and improve long-term quality of life by supporting patients’ mental and emotional health throughout their transplant journey.
