Upcoming ComPsych Webinar

How to Have Impassioned Disagreements Without Damaging Relationships

Monday, May 9 | Noon

ComPsych invites faculty and staff from the higher education industry to attend a special webinar on How to Have Impassioned Disagreements Without Damaging Relationships.

On college campuses around the country, the war in Gaza has spurred dialogue that is important but often very challenging. People may find themselves in conversations where there is passionate disagreement, but also a desire to maintain positive relationships. This webinar is about having those conversations in ways that allow you to convey strong convictions without damaging relationships that matter to you.

Staff & Faculty are welcome to attend this upcoming higher education specific webinar with ComPsych! If interested, please register here.

Mental Health Matters: Strategies for Managing Anxiety

Monday, May 6 | Noon

Anxiety is and has been on the rise. In fact, it is the most common issue Gen Z-ers bring up in therapy. According to our own book of business data, anxiety started appearing in 2014 as a reason for seeking out counseling. In 2020, anxiety jumped to the top of our charts and has stayed there ever since, worsening even. As a society, what is making us so anxious and how can we deal with it in a healthy way? Join this session to find out.

Speaker: Jennifer Birdsall, Ph.D., ABPP, Clinical Director, ComPsych
