Groups and Workshops

CMHS offers groups and workshops which focus on a specific topic, such as Stress Management, Grief, or other topics. Groups are usually composed of a small group of students who meet weekly for a predetermined number of sessions, along with one or two staff members. Topics vary based on student interest and demand. Groups are confidential, free and available to all Tufts students. For more information or to join, contact group facilitators.
