Is there a way to learn from challenging times–to become more flexible, confident, and self-reliant? In the first installment of this workshop series, CAPS psychologist Erica Lennon will help participants reflect on their experiences and consider ways to become more resilient and to increase their self-efficacy during times of struggle. We will discuss:

  • Challenges of transitions in general, as well as transitions specific to the past 2 years in the midst of the COVID pandemic
  • The impact of challenges on perceived success, goal attainment, and self-efficacy as graduate students and early-career professionals
  • Opportunities created through navigating transitions:
    • building mental flexibility
    • expansion of stress tolerance and regulation
    • enhancement of skills-sets applicable to school and work
  • Application of the above skills in both academic and professional settings
