No sleep. Stress at home. Distance learning sucks. No contact with friends. No sports. No real fun. There are MANY reasons you are stressed to the max. Worrying about stressing too much? Trying things that don’t really work? We’ll talk about what self-care actually is and how to use it to help yourself and be more in control.
Taught by Sylvia Rodriguez, AMFT (supervised by Marté Matthews, LMFT) and Angela Dube, LMFT
