What happens when I attend a class?
Stress control is not group therapy. You will not be asked to talk about your problems in front of others. All the seats face the front and the facilitators running the course will teach you about stress and how to tackle it. Your aim is to pick up the new skills and practice what you have learned between the sessions.
