GCMHP conducted group counseling session for girls

GCMHP conducted group counseling sessions for 20 girls as part of the project "Improving the Availability of Youth and their Caregivers to Mental Health and Psychosocial Support Quality Services in Gaza Strip." This project was implemented in partnership with the Belgian Agency for International Cooperation - Enabel, and funded by the Belgian Government.

The session targeted girls affected by the repercussions of the war and focused on helping them understand the psychological and emotional effects of ongoing trauma and stress.

The session addressed several key topics, including identifying feelings associated with fear, anxiety, and sadness; healthy ways to express these feelings; enhancing positive coping skills; building social support; and developing strategies to help participants cope with stress and trauma in safe and effective ways.

The session also provided a safe space for participants to share experiences and insights, contributing to reducing psychological stress and fostering a sense of security and belonging.
