This group is to support teachers who are experiencing challenges related to the current administration and potential changes within the Department of Education
This supportive therapy group is designed for educators who are seeking a safe and understanding space to express their genuine concerns and frustrations about their professional experiences. It is ideal for those navigating the evolving landscape of education, facing unique challenges, and desiring to connect with peers who share similar experiences. Participants will benefit from sharing insights, gaining mutual support, and exploring coping strategies in a confidential and empathetic environment. This group is particularly beneficial for educators experiencing stress, burnout, or uncertainty about their career path. It is not intended for individuals currently undergoing severe mental health crises, who may require more intensive, individualized support.
What to expect
Participants can anticipate a secure and nurturing environment where they can openly express their frustrations and challenges related to their roles as educators. Through active participation, members may develop enhanced coping strategies, improved emotional regulation, and increased resilience in managing work-related stress. Short-term benefits may include a sense of relief from sharing experiences and gaining validation from peers. Long-term outcomes may encompass strengthened professional identity, improved interpersonal skills, and a more balanced approach to work-life integration. While individual experiences may vary, consistent engagement in the group is likely to foster personal growth, deeper self-awareness, and a supportive network of colleagues.
