Welcome to the Anxiety Toolbox support group intended to help increase your understanding and knowledge about anxiety. The goal is to provide you with some skills to recognize and manage the symptoms you may be experiencing. We hope you find it helpful. Our goal is to provide you with life-long tools you can use while facing anxiety-triggering situations. While occasionally unpleasant, some anxiety can actually be a helpful and motivating emotion. Our hope is that these sessions provide you with a spring board from which to integrate skills into your daily life in the service of reducing anxiety.

When: Wednesdays at 4 p.m., beginning March 8, 2023

Where: Counseling Center
