We have found that brief therapy is quite effective with college students, especially when problems are dealt with at an early stage. It is not unusual for significant change to occur in just a few sessions, even for problems that seem insurmountable on the surface. Some difficult or long-standing problems may not be completely resolved in brief treatment, but a course of brief therapy may provide a focus for a student's subsequent personal efforts to change. Groups CAPS offers a support group for students with concerns about alcohol and other drugs and family issues. There is also a support group for students who are currently in graduate school.
Support groups are free of charge.
In addition, CAPS offers therapy groups for students seeking personal change in an intensive, supportive atmosphere. Therapy groups are offered at minimal cost. Groups provide an opportunity for change that is ongoing throughout a semester or even the entire academic year. Stress disrupts the spiritual, emotional, mental, physical and social balance we work hard to maintain. For a fee, a biofeedback therapist is available for individual appointments and consultations.
