College Age Women's Group 2016

Hosted by

Shayna Feldman Barksdale

College can be an exciting time and also anxiety provoking, confusing and lonely. Do you ever feel that you're not ___________(pretty, smart, skinny, add your own) enough? And tell yourself if only I (lose weight, make all A's, have a partner) then I will feel worthy. Or even worry so much what others think that you do not have the close relationships/friendships you want? learn more at shaynabarksdalelcsw.com
