Group Counseling
In addition to individual and couples counseling, the Counseling and Wellness Center offers group counseling as yet another way of helping students.
- In group counseling, six to eight students typically meet with one or more counselors to talk about issues that are of concern to them.
- Groups may focus on a wide range of issues such as managing stress, overcoming shyness, dealing with grief, sustaining recovery from alcohol and/or other drug addictions, or recovering from trauma.
- Students may be referred for group participation by their counselor or may seek to participate on their own.
- Screening interviews are often scheduled for prospective group members to make sure the group is appropriate for them.
- While the structure of groups may vary, typically they meet once a week for 60 to 90 minutes.
- The group experience provides opportunities to receive support and feedback from others, and in some cases, to practice new skills that might be introduced during meetings.
