12 Step Recovery Meetings - Two Offerings! 12 Step Recovery is a fellowship of people who come together to build an individualized program of recovery based on the program's 12 Steps of Recovery. This pathway includes a spiritual component, Higher Power, that is unique to each individual, and that may evolve or change completely over time. 12 Step Recovery at UConn is intended to provide exposure and practice with 1) 12 Steps overall with a strong focus on the first three Steps, 2) primary program components, literature, and guiding principles, and 3) building a community of support and fellowship. 12 Step Recovery is an abstinence-based program designed originally to support people living with addiction to substances; however, it has grown to include other types of addictions and problem behaviors. Meetings are facilitated by students for students. UConn Storrs offers a weekly in-person meeting on campus at Cordial Storrs House, as well as a weekly meeting that is online only. IN-PERSON ONLY, Offered at the UConn Recovery Community Wednesdays, 6:00 - 7:00pm Cordial Storrs House, 1332 Storrs Road, Storrs Campus All UConn Students are Welcome - Any campus!

Unbreakable: Rising from within: Women's Trauma Group Unbreakable: Rising from Within is a therapy group for women who have experienced traumatic events or relationships who are ready to take back their lives. Traumatic experiences or relationships often lead us to develop unhealthy coping strategies such as, social isolation/anxiety, quickly jumping into unhealthy relationships, difficulty with trusting and enforcing our boundaries when we need them most or increased alcohol, cannabis, or other drug use. Unbreakable: Rising from Within provides a supportive and confidential environment for students to begin the healing process by learning about common reactions to trauma and ways to recognize and overcome these potentially debilitating triggers. We will work to remind ourselves of the importance of boundaries, increase self-confidence and learn and practice healthier coping strategies to promote overall health and wellbeing.To join this group therapy session, please call SHaW at 860-486-4700 (tel:+18604864705) This session is held by Cassaundra Popek, LMFT (https://studenthealth.uconn.edu/person/cassaundra-popek-lmft/) 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.
