As a currently enrolled student at 太阳城集团官方网址导航, you are eligible to use 个人心理咨询. Once you make an appointment to talk with someone from our counseling psychology staff, here's what you can expect.

For many students, it's a new experience to discuss difficult personal matters with 一个心理学家. Often students begin by saying, "I'm not sure where to start..." or, “这感觉很尴尬。..." Before you begin, here are several things to consider.

In the past, you may have been able to handle the pressures of college, work, and 个人生活. You may have even tried discussing situations with friends, relatives, 或其他. Sometimes, these people care so much about your well-being that they become over-involved in the situation and lose their ability to give an objective viewpoint. The counseling psychology staff may offer a different perspective, and may help you develop new strategies and solutions. 这是怎么做到的??

By discussing the topics of concern, you will be helped to clarify:

• the nature and extent of the problem with specific details
• why it's a problem for you now
• how it interferes with your life and progress at PCC
• how you've tried to deal with it
• what has been successful and what hasn't
• some alternatives acceptable to you
• goals for behavioral and situational changes

When you have outlined a concrete plan of action, you may be assigned specific activities to improve your problem-solving skills and to strengthen your confidence. 你的进步 toward your self-defined goals usually is hastened by following the recommended activities 在你的约会之间. We will monitor your progress and you may need to make changes to tailor your work for specific situations. This is important because Personal 咨询 is limited to short-term consultations on specific problems. 在某些情况下， the problem presented may require more specialized or extended services than can be 由书院提供. If this is your situation, you will be given assistance in locating the proper professional.
