“How to Prepare for Joining a Support Group”
WELCOME!
We are busy planning some great workshops. Be sure to add your name to our mailing list so you can stay informed about upcoming workshops and offerings. We will share with you our free guide on how to prepare for a support group.
Taking part in a workshop offers you a chance to learn new skills to help you tend to a specific area or issue in life, as well as the opportunity to garner quick support and connect with others with similar experiences or shared interests. Workshops are similar to support groups in that they provide a safe space to connect with others and learn new skills, but workshops differ in that they are short-term and usually meet only once.
College Readiness Workshop: Preparing to Navigate a New Chapter
The transition to college can feel daunting, and you may be experiencing some anxiety or fear about entering a new environment full of unknowns and uncertainty. Who will my friends be? What will I major in? How will I spend my time? It may also feel like a fresh start or exciting opportunity to reflect on the person you’ve grown into and how you want to show up in a new space.
This workshop is for incoming undergraduate freshman students who may be feeling overwhelmed or who want to take mindful steps to think about their upcoming transition into college. The workshop will support you in beginning to think about what skills, resources, and strengths you already have or can develop to rely on as you navigate what can be a challenging and exciting time period.
You can expect to be in community with others in a similar stage of life who may share similar fears and hopes, as well as space for reflection, envisioning, and skills learning opportunities to help ground and equip you for the beginning of your college career.
Lizzie Toepler, LMSW will be leading the College Readiness Workshop: Preparing to Navigate a New Chapter.

FAQ
What is a workshop?
A workshop is a meeting that is devoted to the intensive exploration and study of a particular topic, issue or theme. All workshops hosted by Bhava Therapy Group are led by a licensed and skilled professional. Most workshops are scheduled for one meeting, but on occasion, a workshop might have two parts, meeting at two different times in entirety. A workshop on a specific focus provides participants the chance to enrich and deepen their understanding of that particular topic, learn new skills or practices and connect with others who have similar experiences and interests.
Who are workshops designed for?
Bhava Therapy workshops are designed for any member of the general population who would benefit from the deeper exploration of topics offered.
How does a workshop differ from a support group?
While both support groups and workshops offer the chance for participants to learn, grow and connect and heal, support groups meet regularly over a longer period of time requiring more of a commitment whereas a workshop meets just once, or at the most, twice.
Can I earn continuing education (CE) credit for a workshop?
Workshops are not approved, intended or designed to provide CE credit to any mental health professional who attends a workshop. Bhava Therapy Group is an accredited provider of continuing education nationally by the ASWB and NBCC, and in New York State by the NYSED, where such credit is awarded on the grounds that certain criteria are met in the development of each class. Our full list of continuing education classes can be found here https://www.bhavatherapygroup.com/continuing-education/
Do I have to be in therapy to join a support group?
No, you do not have to be in therapy to join a support group! Support groups are a safe space to explore your emotions and our groups are oftentimes geared towards a specific age group or topic that you have in common. If you have additional mental health support outside of the group that is great, though it is not a requirement to join a group.
