Workshops offered:
- CBH Stress & Anxiety Workshop
Manage stress before stress manages you. This workshop explains the basic physiological and psychological mechanisms of stress and anxiety. The workshop explores how we experience stress, why we have it, and why it's bad for us when it's out of control. The workshop offers tips on handling anxiety and reducing stress.

Time management is one of the biggest challenges students face. This workshop addresses some of the primary hurdles to good time management, and offers tips and solutions for using time more effectively.
