Duyan Support Groups
Community matters, and Duyan is designed to be part of the fabric that strengthens your encounter with it. Duyan is a space and an experience for you to find new ways of coping with what you’re carrying: be it stress, burnout, or grief; through arts-based psychosocial support facilitated by practitioners and clinicians.

Support groups can be good for anyone aged 6 and up. Usually, the group may have something in common that they wish to talk about or explore together; for example: coworkers being in the same department, students going through exam period, people who are processing grief at the same time.

We have served hundreds of teachers all over the country! We have also held space for coworkers, healthcare professionals, and diplomats.
The greatness of a community is most accurately measured by the compassionate actions of its members.

THE JOURNEY
Let's address stress.
Duyan supports you through the life experiences that cause stress, anxiety, compassion fatigue, burnout, and other concerns felt during times of adversity. As a group session, Duyan is a form of psychosocial support that uses the arts in creating safe and healing spaces.
Let's regain belonging.
We have often heard comments from people who are surprised to find strangers feel like old friends by the end of a session. Duyan grows a sense of mutual support, belonging, acceptance, and community by giving space to each person to share their stories, find resonance for what they feel, and learn from others about skills for coping.
Let's make community the heart of wellbeing.
More than a gathering, Duyan empowers a community to shape their wellbeing. With group sessions as a frame, Duyan makes it easier for you to find the support you need through the community nearest to you: be that at work, at home, in school, or amongst a group of friends.
