This is a process-oriented group where participants will share their experiences and hear about the experiences of others. Participants can self-refer or be referred by a Student Health and Wellness practitioner (pre-screening required by a facilitator).鈥

Group requirements: Participants should have specific鈥痠nterpersonal/relational patterns or goals that they would like to work on within session.鈥 听
