Youth Mental Health is a growing concern. Mounting anxiety and stress may be compounding their daily struggles. Taming the Worry Dragons can successfully help today’s youth learn to recognize and manage their daily stressors with specific coping skills for a happier, healthier life.
Led by a Registered Clinical Counsellor Sarah Falk, BA, M. Ed. Sarah’s highly rated success with her participants comes from positive energy that makes it easy for her group to feel relaxed, connected, and ready to lock away their worries, as they come to realize, they’ve got this!
The goal of this mental health group is for participants to experience a decrease in anxiety. Our Lead Professionals will help to equip the participants with knowledge, tools and skills to decrease anxieties and stressors in every day life.
The age range for this group will be ages 9-14 years old (some exceptions can be made to this age range, considering the other clients who have enrolled).
This group will be run every Wednesday for 8 weeks, starting February 23, 2022 and ending on April 13, 2022. Each session will be 90 minutes from 4:00 pm – 5:30 pm.
AFB Funding can be applied to this group.

As a provincial organization FSI acknowledges that our work spans across all of the traditional, ancestral, and unceded Indigenous territories in BC. Therefore, we respectfully honour all First Nations, Inuit and Métis people, as well as their ancestors, who have lived here and cared for these lands. It is with gratitude that we can live, learn and do our work in the province now known as British Columbia.
