Anxiety Toolbox is a series of 3 workshops designed to help people learn about anxiety and some basic skills to help identify and manage anxious thoughts and behaviors.
This first session focuses on understanding what anxiety is and uses activities and breathing exercises to begin the practice of building your toolbox!
This is a non-clinical series provided by Retriever Integrated Health, so no appointments or consultations are required and any UMBC community member can join this virtual session! If you can only make it to 1 or 2 of the workshops, that's ok too.
If you have any questions please contact Shavern Browne (
stbrowne@umbc.edu). If you need accommodations for a disability, please contact Stephanie Will (
swill1@umbc.edu) at least one week prior to the start of the workshop and RIH will arrange for services.
This event is open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race, color, religion, sex, national origin, or any other protected category under applicable federal law, state law, and the University's nondiscrimination policy.
