Doing Well During Stressful Times: Managing the New Normal of Life During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Graduate studies is usually a stressful pursuit; graduate studies during the COVID-19 pandemic is even more stressful! Join us for a 1 hour webinar focused on helping graduate students manage and do well during this truly unique time. Counsellors from the Student Counselling Centre on campus (David Ness and Natalia Mozol) will provide practical strategies for managing social isolation, physical distancing, COVID-19 “overload”, negative thinking and worry and more. Participants will be provided workshop materials following the session. This session will be offered via ZOOM and students are invited to participate as they would like (e.g. ask questions via chat function or live using audio and mic, activate video, simply listen, etc.). It is important during this time to take action to be as mentally healthy as possible and not simply wait for better times to come.

Friday, May 8 2:30pm – 3:45pm via ZOOM
