This paper is an unusual summary of my thoughts on the International Workshop on Psychotherapeutic Interventions in Cancer Patients in Flims, Switzerland, in 1995. Based upon virtual coffeebreak communications, I try to explain to my virtual partner how the idea of the workshop developed, how I came to select participants and experts, and why the workshop was structured in such a specific way. Concerning the workshop itself I shall quote personal feedback statements from participants, drawing upon the impressions they took with them from demonstration workshops prepared by the leading experts in the field. During the workshop the impact of psychosocial interventions upon survival was critically evaluated, whereas it was unanimously agreed that the most important target of psychosocial interventions in cancer patients is the improvement in quality of life. After the workshop I personally decided to enhance my professional engagement in the area of helping clinical oncologists and nurses to improve on the psychosocial skills they need in caring for cancer patients.
