Managing Emotions - Stonebridge

Do you find yourself acting ineffectively based on your emotion? Do you feel you have more unhelpful than positive emotions? Do you find it difficult to control your emotions and impulses? This group provides participants the skills necessary to help manage emotions. Group members can benefit from attending group and by practicing the skills taught by group leader each session. Group will provide clients a safe, healthy environment to process the behaviors created by unhelpful emotions and learn how to manage them through new, alternative behaviors and skills. Group sessions will focus on:

• Managing emotions through skill-use
• Increasing positive emotions
• Decreasing unhelpful emotions

Due to group requirements, new participants may be invited to meet with a group leader individually before starting group sessions. Potential participants cannot have active psychosis, active addiction or active suicidal/homicidal thoughts.
