  • Description
    MIND AND BODY:SUPPORT AND EMPOWERMENT FOR STUDENTS WITH CHRONIC HEALTH CONDITIONS. This weekly group is for students adjusting to coping with chronic health conditions in a university setting. This is a safe space for students to share their experiences and support each other in managing their health while also managing the challenges of college life. This group is a joint effort between medical and mental health services to ensure that students are cared for in a complete and holistic manner.' This session is held by Jennifer Fox, PhD (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/jennifer-fox/) & Ryan Grade BSN, RN (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/ryan-grade/)   For many concerns that students face- like overwhelming stress, anxiety, difficult relationships, depression, academic difficulties, and more – group therapy is the best option for support and healing. Facilitated by SHaW counselors, our therapy groups encourage peer support, promote emotional wellbeing, and increase a felt sense of connection. Participants often find that they feel less alone in their struggles and walk away with newfound support and ideas for coping.
