Group online sessions

Engaging conversations - online groups using Google meet

Some people find it challenging to make friends, shy away from engaging with others for fear of being embarrassed or hurt. This may be because they have not learnt this in their family or personal environment. As a result they feel lonely and rejected and wonder if they will ever be able to engage with others for friendship and companionship. The need to relate to others and the feeling of belonging runs deep in every human being. To meet this need, we need to learn how to engage with others so that we can relate to them.

Are you engaging with people on a surface level? Do you think that you do not have 'real friends' or that friends hurt each other? In this 'Engaging conversations' group learn more about yourself and how you engage with others.
