We know it can be tough to experience anxiety while at University. The UC Health Centre is hosting an anxiety workshop series to provide students with the opportunity to explore new ways to experience life so that anxiety doesn’t run the show. You will be with a small group of likeminded students – a safe and supportive environment.
For enrolment or info reach out to Anna Dalzell, Counsellor at the UC Health Centre.
