Group Psychoeducation & Wellbeing Programs

This in-person program is grounded in contemporary, evidence-based neuroscience and psychological science made into accessible, practical learning for every-day life. While there are many approaches out there, our 4-week program is designed to stay true to what research reliably shows supports stress regulation, emotional health, and self-connection.

Led by Dr Koren Ganas, each 2 hour session integrates neuroscience-informed psychoeducation, guided experiential practice and practical tools to take with you, drawn from areas like mindfulness, self-compassion, and affective psychology — all translated into real-life application.

Week 1: The (actual) science of the body-mind connection

Understand the neuroscience of stress and emotions; and learn what you can do to navigate the cycle.

Week 2: Being with ourselves

Understand the relationship between attention, reactivity, and stress, and learn mindful awareness skills to help regulate your experience. 

Week 3: Being gentle with ourselves: Self-Compassion practice as a stress buffer
Learn how kindness (not pressure) changes the brain, supports our wellbeing, and protects against burnout.

Week 4: Real Self-Care
Understanding and supporting our relationship with ourselves allows us to build a safe, consistent, respectful inner world.
