College can feel overwhelming, stressful, and isolating at times. This group will help you develop the tools to more effectively cope with your feelings of anxiety, sadness, anger, and even numbness. We will learn about the connection between our thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and how we can begin to identify and reframe thinking patterns to support you in becoming the version of yourself you most want to be. Group sessions will build on concepts and skills developed week-to-week, therefore, new members may join only at the beginning of the series.
