Counseling Center Meets Student Needs

     Now that I have found a few programs the counseling center offers, I am going to do research on how this facility helps meet students needs. In our world today, students seem to be struggling with behavioral and emotional health problems at a higher rate than ever before. Counseling centers on college campuses and cities world wide are created in order to help tackle and contain these health problems in order to maintain a healthy living and working environment. Many of these counseling centers use multiple forms of psychotherapy and organizational relationships in order to help students keep students healthy, alert, and able to obtain an education. Without services such as this, many students would have no where to turn to solve personal issues and problems while away from home. With a framework of counseling and planning in place, students will be provided any wants and needs in regards to personal issues and problems. What would one do if he or she had so much anger and depression to built up with no one to turn to? The purpose of the counseling center is to make sure no one student gets to that point. There are many more students with personal problems than one may think because the student often hides away his or her emotions in order to try to act normal or fit in. This counseling center gives students the resources they need in order to help cope with these personal issues and problems in an efficient way. Most people with these personal problems are at risk of deep depression, suicidal thoughts, and detachment. In order to avoid these issues the counseling center will target specific groups of students with a variety of personal problems in order to fit the needs of multiple issues. The UK Counseling Center is an invaluable resource to all students on campus.
