Theory and Practice in College and University Counseling This two day course will focus on the developmental issues of college and university students in relation to common clinical presenting problems, predicaments and crises, as seen in a campus counseling center. We will review risk assessment and determining levels of needed and requested intervention, counseling and/or psychotherapy, in relation to on and off-campus mental health resources. The mental health needs of underserved and ?non-traditional? students will also be discussed. Other topics will include understanding privacy and confidentiality; using consultation and supervision; engaging the arts in counseling; and self-care in high-stress environments. Class format will include instructor presentation, group discussion and role play and sharing relevant personal experience. The entire course will run over a four week period, with pre-readings being assigned for the first week and the actual two in-class days running consecutively in the second week. Follow up coursework will be assigned and turned in within the following two weeks after the in-class portion.
