Peer Counseling
Peer Counselors (PCs) are part of Student Health & Counseling Services team and serve as an additional resource to promote safety and well-being. PCs are current students who are trained to be supportive, helpful listeners and problem solvers who offer a non-judgment and confidential space to discuss any concerns.

- The opportunity build leadership, interpersonal communication and group facilitation skills.
- A space to practice working with diverse populations in a sensitive and empowering manner.

Group Counseling/Trainings
Group Counseling is a confidential service provided to all eligible students. Therapy groups are often limited to a maximum of 12 people.
Once therapy has begun, the group is closed. Closed groups with a small number of participants allow for trust building and group cohesion, thus allowing groups to be therapeutic.
