Description du livre
The Zenstudies: Making a Healthy Transition to Higher Education program aims to prevent depression and anxiety among first-year students in post-secondary school. It includes three modules, or prevention levels.
Module 2, presented here, is a targeted-selective prevention program. It includes two workshops, one for anxiety management and one for depression prevention for self-referred students, taught by a team of teachers and specialists. Participants in these small-group workshops will have volunteered to take this training.
Module 2 aims to ease the transition to college or university and lower the risk of dropout, while equipping students with a solid understanding of issues related to internalizing problems (anxiety and depression) and teaching them a few preventive strategies.
The facilitator’s guide has been specifically designed for teachers or professionals trained in providing mental health services and who are working with this student clientele.
The Rossy and Bell Foundations made the translation of the Zenétudes program in English possible.
