Healthy Workplace and Learning & Professional Development are collaborating to offer this virtual Working from Home Group Workshop Series, led by Dr. Erin O’Farrell, C.Psych. Our aim is to provide support to Carleton University faculty and staff in the form of a series of group sessions that focus on adjusting to working from home. These groups are open to all Carleton University faculty and staff who want to connect with colleagues and share current experiences while developing strategies to manage current stressors and improve coping.

Please note: these are not therapy groups but rather psychoeducational workshops with group discussion and group problem solving.
