Stress Control @ Stepping Stones
Event Information
Description
Are you looking for help with common problems such as anxiety, depression, panic, poor sleep and poor wellbeing?
Stepping Stones is offering a free, 6 session evening class that will take place in Clydebank Community Support Hub, Dean Street, G81 1RH, on six Wednesday evenings in a row (7 – 8.30pm), beginning 22nd January.
Stress Control is a class not a group therapy. You do not discuss personal problems. You just sit back and learn some great ways to deal with stress. It combines cognitive-behavioural therapy (CBT) and Positive Psychology. Free booklets and relaxation accompany the class. It will be run by its creator, Dr Jim White, Consultant Clinical Psychologist (who worked in Clydebank Health Centre for ten years). 100s of 1000s of people across the world have been to a Stress Control class. Why not start off the new year by coming along?

Confidentiality
We're hoping to film the first session so it can be used as a teaching aid to therapists I train (and I'll place a clip on the website to let potential users to see exactly how the classworks). Confidentiality will be maintained - no-one will be able to be identified. We'll only light the stage so the audience will be in the dark and the camera will film from behind them (we might use another camera for close-ups of me too). Dr. Jim White
About Dr. Jim White.
Jim worked as a consultant clinical psychologist with the NHS and was based in Clydebank Health Centre between 1995 and 2004. In that time, along with individual therapy and 'advice clinics' he ran Stress Control classes in the big waiting room upstairs on Tuesday evenings and often welcomed psychologists from across Britain and beyond to Clydebank to learn how to run these classes. His relationship with Stepping Stones goes back many years and he facilitated a workshop on stress at Stepping Stones AGM in 2015.
