The study population

The study population consists of adult patients diagnosed with localized breast cancer who have completed adjuvant treatment (chemotherapy, radiotherapy) and who are cared for in the Medical Oncology department of the Nîmes University Hospital.

Other: Remission Consultation

Interventions

At the end of adjuvant treatment (adjuvant chemotherapy and / or radiotherapy), the patient is seen by a referent oncologist and included in the study. A "Remission" consultation with a psychotherapist is then proposed and its purpose explained to the patient. The patient agrees or refuses take advantage of the "Remission" consultation; in case of refusal, the reasons are documented and further information is provided, thus giving the opportunity for the patient to benefit from further psychological counseling if desired. If approval is given, the patient will be scheduled for the "Remission" consultation (duration 1 hour) . The latter includes a first phase evaluating the mental state of the patient, and then a proposal of individualized care if necessary and according to several methods, depending on the choice of the patient.
