Feeling Overwhelmed? FITA Can Help.
University can be exciting, but it can also feel like a lot to manage. When things get stressful in one area of life, it often spills into another. If you are struggling personally, it can be hard to stay focused academically, and vice versa.

The From Intention to Action (FITA) program offers confidential, one-on-one support to help you manage stress, stay motivated, and feel more in control of your studies.

With either 5 or 10 weekly sessions working with a FITA coordinator, you will have a space to talk about what is been getting in your way, whether that’s academic pressure, motivation, anxiety, or life outside of school. Together, you will work on strategies to build balance, confidence, and effective habits that support your well-being and academic success.

If you think FITA might be right for you, visit carleton.ca/fita to learn more. You can also reach out to us directly at fitaction@carleton.ca or contact Assistant Manager, Alley St. Louis at 613-520-2600 ext. 1028.

To book an intake appointment directly, you can do so through this link:  https://carletonu.inputhealth.com/ebooking

You don’t have to handle everything on your own! We are here to help you find your footing and move forward with confidence.

FITA Sessions Available
The From Intention to Action (FITA) program is currently accepting students. FITA supports undergraduate and graduate students in the often stressful university experience. The program helps students better manage stress and improve their academic performance by navigating the personal stressors that can often get in the way of school. FITA students meet one-on-one with a coordinator for one hour every week for either five or 10 consecutive weeks. FITA coordinators are staff members or master’s-level interns trained in counselling and psychotherapy. Students can schedule an intake interview online or email: fitaction@carleton.ca.
