Goal of the Activity

The Mental Well-being Sessions aim to provide a safe, supportive space where young people in Aarhus can openly share their experiences, emotions, and challenges related to life transitions, mental health, and personal growth. Led by trained facilitators, the sessions encourage open discussions on key themes, such as moving to a new city, friendships, and exam stress, helping participants navigate these changes in a healthy and constructive way.

Description

We are excited to announce a new initiative focused on mental well-being 

Lead by two trained facilitators we will hold sessions, where you can share your experiences, emotions and thoughts in a safe space, together with other young people 
We will work with different themes each session

This is a space where we can share our experiences of moving to Aarhus. Whether you have recently relocated or have been living in Aarhus for many years, you are welcome to come and share your experience, your thoughts and feelings.
This session offers a safe space for you to share the challenges and joys of moving, whether it's from different cities in Denmark or countries. Come and share with us.

If relevant, the facilitators will introduce you to coping mechanisms that can help you face the challenges of being in a new city.

About the facilitators:

About Duy:

I am Duy. I am a second-year student of Gestalt psychotherapy. Originally I am from Vietnam, but I have lived in Aarhus for 20 years. Currently, I am working as a scrum master, while working on my degree.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my friends, reading manga, playing board games and badminton.
I am looking forward to engaging in conversations with you about mental well-being.

About Gintare:

I am Gintare. Iโ€™m a psychotherapist and coach based in Aarhus, currently in my 3rd year of studies at the Gestalt Institute Scandinavia. I have a background in coaching and psychotherapy and have worked extensively with people navigating stress, anxiety, and major life transitions.
Having lived in six different countries, I bring a broad, multicultural perspective to my work. Iโ€™m especially passionate about working with young people, helping them explore their emotions, build resilience, and find clarity in times of uncertainty. My approach is supportive and engaging, creating a space where students can feel heard, explore their thoughts and emotions, and develop a deeper understanding of themselves. I believe in the power of curiosity, openness, and real connection.

In my free time, I love traveling, snowboarding, and kitesurfingโ€”basically anything that keeps me active and exploring new places. Iโ€™m also into fashion, psychology books, and enjoying good coffee with good company.
