Workshops and Groups

CAMHS offers a wonderful array of in-person and virtual programs for students to promote mental wellbeing every semester. Participation in one of our groups or workshops provides a confidential, safe, and supportive space to discuss your concerns and learn coping skills with others who may have similar challenges. Any of these programs can help you change and reach personal goals, foster stress management skills, and alleviate feelings of alienation and loneliness. The number of sessions varies in frequency depending on the group format. Be sure to email the group leader (as listed on the events calendar description) to express your interest, and they will get back to you.

NOTE: CAMHS workshops and groups are open to Harvard undergraduate and graduate students who pay the Student Health Fee (SHF), which is required for the majority of students. If you have a question about eligibility, please call Patient Registration at (617) 495-5795.

We can also occasionally customize a workshop for a Harvard undergraduate or graduate program. This requires at least 6-8 weeks of planning. Contact the CAMHS Community Engagement Specialist, Tara Cousineau, Ph.D., at tcousineau@huhs.harvard.edu.

What is the difference in group formats?

Psychoeducational workshops are skills-based, typically consisting of 4-8 sessions, and are voluntary to join. Most are drop-in as needed, but you will get the most benefit by attending the series.
Support groups are also drop-in and require communication with the group facilitator to ensure the right fit (for example, Recovery Support or Queer Support Groups).
Therapy groups require a referral from your CAMHS clinician and a clinical pre-screening with the group facilitator. Therapy process groups typically have 6-8 members (for example, Graduate Students Support Group or Grieving & Coping Together Group).
