COLLEGE MENTAL HEALTH
Counseling for College Mental Health refers to the Therapist helping the college student deal with issues related to time management, academic adjustment, social skills, being away from home for the first time, getting used to living with other people and, as time goes by, choosing a major and career path. The age range when most people go to college (late teens to early 20s) is also the age at which serious mental illnesses such as depression, bipolar disorder, and schizophrenia often appear. College is also a time when many people choose to begin experimenting with drugs and alcohol, which can lead to substance abuse problems. College Mental Health Therapy provides students with a sense of intention, hope, and guidance for the future, enabling them to persist in facing obstacles and challenges.
