Drop-in Skills Groups at CAPS

Contributed by Brittany McCown

For the past two years, CAPS has been offering Skills Groups to help students better cope with anxiety, regulate moods, learn more effective communication skills, and build healthier relationships.

Starting this fall, our Skills Groups will be offered in a drop-in format, meaning that no appointment is required to attend, and you do not have to be a CAPS client.

We are offering three Drop-in Skills Groups this semester, with some having multiple sections:

Anxiety Toolbox (Tuesdays 11-11:50 AM; Wednesdays 4-4:50 PM; Thursdays 4-4:50 PM)

Learn new skills and strategies for healthy coping and reducing distress or overwhelm.

Emotional Expression (Fridays 1-2 PM)

Develop new skills and identify, manage, and express positive and negative emotions in effective and non-harmful ways (including creative writing, journaling, art, etc.).

Communication Toolbox (Tuesdays 1-1:50 PM)

Learn skills for communicating effectively, building healthy relationships, expressing yourself, and finding your voice.

Please visit our website for more information about the wide variety of Groups offered at CAPS.
