Mental Health Skill Building: RIO (Recognition, Insight & Openness)

RIO is a two-part program that teaches students techniques for recognizing and moving past situations that cause stress, frustration, and anxiety. RIO can provide skills to help you: 

    Manage and reduce anxiety
    Adapt to new challenges
    Understand your thoughts and feelings, WITHOUT judgment or shame
    Move beyond feeling “stuck” 
    Take the initiative to step out of your comfort zone

This program is open to all Illinois students—you do not need to be a current client of the Counseling Center. We do strongly encourage you to be available to attend both sessions.
