This 12-week virtual group uses the evidence-based therapy approach Skills Training in Affect and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR) for individuals currently experiencing distress from trauma. Taught by Cristina Chévere-Rivera, Psy.D. and Stephanie Taylor, Ph.D., this group is geared toward adults who are currently in therapy or who are transitioning out of therapy.

• Enhanced coping skills to navigate distress and regulate difficult emotions. 
• The skills to make decisions based on important values instead of being emotionally driven.  
• Healthy ways of relating across social, professional, and personal contexts. 

Through this group, you will also learn:

• How to have increased emotional awareness. 
• How the interconnection of body, thoughts, and behaviors can impact your life.
• What self-compassion is and how you can use it to help yourself in challenging situations. 

This virtual group meets weekly for 12-weeks. The cost is $65/weekly session.

Next group begins April 6, 2023 from 4:00 p.m. - 5:30 p.m.
