This 6-session support group, co-facilitated by two MHT clinicians, offers a student-centered space to show up as you are, connect with peers, and build community.

Together we’ll explore ways to navigate academic and professional stress, manage anxiety, reflect on identity-related experiences, and address impostor feelings- along with other student-led topics. The group also fosters moments of joy and connection as part of the healing process.

This group is held on Thursdays 8:30-9:30 AM, starting October 9, 2025. Meeting dates for fall quarter are 10/9; 10/16; 10/23; 10/30; 11/6; 11/13. Sessions are both virtual and in-person.  In-person dates are 10/16, 10/30, 11/13.
