Spartan Connect Events | SHS Counseling & Psychological Services 2nd Floor

Do you feel like you have lost control in your life?  Are you engaging in risky behaviors? Are you numbing the pain with alcohol and/or substances?  This group is for students who want to establish healthy coping strategies. Each session will focus on a specific strategy to help you cope with trauma and substance use. Students will have opportunities to engage in mindfulness techniques, creating a secure space, skills in setting boundaries, or ways to empower yourself through vulnerability. Note: this is group is intended to learn about coping mechanisms but is not to process or delve into the disturbing trauma or addiction memories.  Drop-ins are welcome!
