RESOURCES & REFERRALS

Counseling Services maintains a Resource Library of books, handouts and pamphlets for use by students.  Please also review our links to self-help handouts, web and community resources.

 

 

Self-Help Resources

Student concerns do not always require professional attention. For some issues, you may benefit from obtaining educational handouts to help you solve your own problems. Also, students obtaining help at Counseling Services can be aided by many useful self-help resources. These educational materials deal with such frequent concerns as stress, alcohol and other drug use, depression, perfectionism, and relationship breakups.
