AnxieTEA: Six-Week, Experiential Group (Virtual) with Kara Rubens

Gather in a supportive community for a midday-Friday TEA break and learn to increase your confidence in navigating anxiety. Psychotherapist Kara Rubens, APCC, will facilitate the group. Through peer sharing and experiential practice you will grow your toolbox for taming rumination, defusing panic, and tending to chronic stress/ tension.

Anxiety can manifest in our heads, hearts, bodies, and even show up in our relationships. We will utilize group discussion, breath-work, yoga, creative writing & art exercises to demystify your experience and improve your sense of control.

Consider Joining if:

• You are feeling alone in a pattern of stress and worry.

• You’re exhausted from feeling keyed-up or tense and are ready to make a change.

• You ‘know’ about anxiety but are unsure how to get unstuck.

• You’ve tried some strategies, but haven’t found what works for you or find it hard to commit to regular practice in order to experience relief.

• You desire a non-judgmental environment to explore your experience with others.

Through this group you will:

• Learn how anxiety functions between body and mind and how to interrupt the cycle

• Reduce isolation and self-blame by processing with peers

• Improve your ability to recognize barriers to relief

• Identify values that can motivate meaningful behavior change

• Practice mind and body-based skills to care for acute and chronic anxiety

Bring your tea or snack and enjoy this routine time to connect to yourself and others!
