Sherilynn Chan, PhD
I am a pediatric psychologist who specializes in working with patients with cancer, tumors of the central nervous system, hematological disorders, and immunological disorders, including patients undergoing a stem cell transplant. I provide psychosocial care to children, teens, and young adults seen in the Cancer and Blood Disorders Center at Seattle Children’s Hospital.
In addition to clinical care, I engage in program development, quality improvement projects, and research. My research interests are broadly in pediatric psycho-oncology, and include survivorship and adolescent peer relationships.
