Poster of the mental health programme

This programme is designed for students seeking effective tools to manage stress and promote better self-esteem. It will take place during March and April and involves participation from most UV faculties and schools.

The UV programme for promoting mental health among students comprises two training workshops: Anxiety and stress management, and Self-esteem and time management. These workshops will be led by Master’s Degree students in General Health Psychology who are completing their internships at the UV Psychology Clinic.

  • The workshop on Anxiety and stress management aims to provide practical strategies for managing stress, avoiding anxiety disorders and improving the ability to cope with stressful situations. The course will cover various techniques, such as relaxation methods, conflict resolution and effective communication skills.
  • Additionally, the workshop on Self-esteem and time management will provide strategies for organising time and work effectively. The importance of the correlation between effective time management and self-esteem will also be emphasised, as completing scheduled tasks is crucial for maintaining a positive self-image.

The Office of the Vice-Principal for Sustainability, Cooperation and Healthy Life has launched this programme, which involves the majority of UV centres. “As an institution committed to the well-being of students, we have launched this programme with the aim of improving mental health through the potential of students of the Master’s Degree in General Health Psychology. This programme showcases the UV’s commitment to the personal and professional development of students, as well as fostering a culture of care and emotional support in the academic environment,” said Francisco Atienza, Delegate of the Principal for Psychosocial Health.

The workshops will last approximately two hours and require a minimum of 10 participants, with a maximum of 30 attendees per workshop. Dates and registration details vary according to each centre:
