Active approaches to worry, meeting things head on

This session is part of the psychosocial resources for personal wellbeing and professional competence series and looks at active approaches to worry, meeting things head on

This workshop will look at what worry is, why we do it and how to avoid getting caught in unhelpful and unproductive cycles of worry.
