Story Circles at UNC-CH

About

Instead of telling students to “just be resilient,” Story Circles UNC gives them tools to author and reframe their own stories, creating community through shared experiences and decreasing the isolating effects of UNC’s competitive culture.

While programs like Healing Through Creativity address healing through the arts, no current initiative focuses directly on narrative psychology, the science of how the stories we tell shape our identity, self-esteem, and mental health.

*Not licensed therapy, but research-based peer support program to improve campus wellbeing*
