Distress Tolerance Workshop
Date: Tuesday, April 23nd
Location: The Center for Well-Being 217
Time: 3-4:15pm
You may have heard of Retriever Integrated Health's Skills Training in the Application of Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR) counseling group, which helps students who struggle with relationship dynamics and emotion regulation. We know that not everyone can commit to a 6-week group and that the group times don't always work with students' schedules, so we're excited to bring some of the group's skills to folx in a workshop format as well.
This workshop focuses on Distress Tolerance skills. Students will have the opportunity to learn specific skills to identify when they need to keep moving through distressing situations and how to manage the distress when they do.
The list of attending organizations is available under the "All Employers" tab. Be sure to continue to check the Handshake event - employers are still registering for this event and more continue to be added!
UMBC's Career Month is an opportunity for all students from freshman to PhD to explore their professional options through workshops, alumni chats, industry fairs, employer site visits, and more.
