Psychoeducation

Within the mental health service of the Empower UA project for Ukrainians in Sweden, we provide psychoeducational formats aimed at increasing psychological awareness, emotional resilience, and self-regulation skills.

Psychoeducation offers accessible explanations of psychological processes along with practical tools that help participants better understand their emotions, reactions, and behavioral patterns in situations of stress, adaptation, and life transitions.

The goal of this direction is to strengthen internal resources and support well-being through knowledge, awareness, and practice.

Online meetings held once a month and open to a broad audience.

Topics include:

  • emotional resilience
  • psychology of well-being
  • adaptation to life in a new country

The format combines a short theoretical input, interactive discussions, and practical mini-exercises.No prior experience or background knowledge is required.
