Group therapy provides students the space to get support from, and help mutual growth with fellow students sharing similar experiences or identities.  Here are some groups with current openings:

  *   Children of Immigrants Support Group
  *   Tired but Wired: CBT for Insomnia
  *   Understanding Self and Others
  *   Umoja: Support Group for Black and Latine Womxn Graduate Students
Check out our Groups<https://wellbeing.uw.edu/mental-health/groups-workshops-trainings/> page for descriptions and a list of all the groups.  Groups typically have openings at the beginning of the quarter.  To join a group, call 206-543-1240.

We are starting an Advisory Board for the Counseling Center this year get input from the campus about student mental health needs. The QR code above is for the student application.  We also have a staff and faculty application<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/forms.office.com/r/7KHmdQdmrn__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!iSCFrJgYV5_5ne_UgU4qO-UIVIqqDohIMCJ8uLG-6urkLsFxyxbsl7FFuEK6491YesObpM87s3o0bwZdRezn7Ko$> as we want your voice represented on our advisory board too!
