Go Zen Group

We ask that at least one parent participate - Having a parent attend helps reinforce what the child learns during the session, encourages meaningful follow-up at home, and gives us the opportunity to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Stress, pressure and challenges are part of everyday life. GoZen is a fun and educational group for youth aged 9 to 13. Through this group, youth will develop different techniques to recognize and manage their anxiety. The GoZen skills will be useful in many situations including with family, friends and at school!

Objectives:

• Recognize the signs of anxiety by following an animated story with real-life situations.
• Discover where our worries come from and how to manage them.
• Engage in discussion and activities.
• Practice the GoZen techniques at home.
• Become aware of how our thoughts influence our feelings and behaviour.
