These are challenging times for us all. For many of us, the current pandemic has impacted our wellbeing. We have all been affected in different ways; we may be missing family; home schooling children; working in different ways or not at all; worried about our own health and that of our families'. For some of us, we may be feeling more anxious and stressed.

How long is the workshop?

The workshop will last 90 minutes and will be delivered online via Zoom. You will be able to do this from the comfort of your home, but please make sure you are in a quiet place where you will not be disturbed.

What will be covered?

1. The psychological impact of the COVID-19 pandemic

2. How to recognise anxiety and depression using a Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) framework

3. Learn to manage anxiety and low mood using problem-focused and emotion-focused coping skills.

4. Access to further computerised CBT support and useful information

Who will benefit from attending the workshop?

The workshop is available to members of the public registered with a Bromley GP who are interested in building resilience. There are only 12 spaces available which will be allocated on a first come, first serve basis. Please note that the information and skills covered in this workshop are not enough to relieve post-traumatic stress symptoms. If you feel that you would benefit from individual psychological support, please contact your GP or your local IAPT service.

Is the workshop free?

The workshop is free, however all attendees will be required to register with Talk Together Bromley and to complete some wellbeing questionnaires prior to attending. If you decide to sign up for the workshop, the course facilitator will be in contact with you via email. Once you have been registered and have returned your wellbeing questionnaires, you will be sent the Zoom meeting details (along with joining instructions) for the workshop.
