The Body Project
The Body Project is a 4-week evidence-based program designed to increase body acceptance and decrease body dissatisfaction. Groups meet weekly for 4 weeks to develop skills for managing body dissatisfaction and to confront appearance ideals pressed upon us by society and social media. It is offered in collaboration from UW LiveWell and the UW Counseling Center with groups facilitated by trained Peer Health Educators from UW LiveWell. This is NOT a therapy group; it is a prevention based educational group. If you’ve ever wanted to form a healthier relationship with your body, then this group is for you!

Dawgs Unplugged
Want to form a healthier relationship with social media? Join our Social Media Peer Group, Dawgs Unplugged, to explore the impact of overuse, learn strategies for healthier habits, and strengthen offline connections. Meetings are offered regularly throughout the quarter for insightful discussions, practical tools, and a supportive community to help you reclaim balance in your digital life! Students are encouraged to attend as many sessions as they’d like.

Talking to Friends
Looking to build stronger connections and feel more confident in navigating social situations? Talking to Friends is a 4-week peer-led group that focuses on expanding connections with other Huskies through building self-efficacy, interpersonal, and resiliency skills. Those who sign up will meet for one hour sessions facilitated by a trained Peer Health Educator, who is a student at UW. The goals of these sessions are to explore isolating experiences that happen on campus, develop healthy intrapersonal habits, and make the most out of your social life. Whether you’re shy, adjusting to a new environment, or just looking to meet new people, this group is a safe and welcoming space to grow. Start building friendships and skills that will last a lifetime—come join us!
