Detailed Description: The main objective of the present study is to evaluate the effects of the Revie ⊕ intervention on the self-esteem of patients diagnosed with an advanced cancer. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the effects of the Revie ⊕ intervention on spiritual well-being, personal development, life satisfaction, and the perception of the interaction with the nurses. A pragmatic, two-arm parallel-group, waitlist randomized controlled trial (WLRCT) is conducted in which participants are randomized into (i) intervention, or (ii) waitlist control groups. The intervention group (IG) receives the Revie ⊕ intervention early on and the control group (CG) the same intervention but later on (i.e., after eight weeks).This monocentric study takes place in the oncology department of the University Hospitals of Geneva (HUG) at two outpatient units (planned n=102; 51 per group).
