Time: Thursdays 3:30-5:00 starting September 7th
Through lectures, assignments, open discussions, and projects, the class is designed to decrease the stigma attached to counseling and mental health.
First, we will begin with training in peer counseling. Using readings and interactive exercises, students will learn and apply the Rogerian model of peer counseling to a variety of real-life problems. For the second half of the course, we will investigate various mental disorders common on college campuses through a series of guest lectures with professionals and open discussions, ultimately tying the knowledge to how to more effectively peer-counsel. The goal is to translate diagnostic clinical psychology into empathy for those grappling with mental illnesses.
No day(s) left until application deadline!
