Counselors work collaboratively with students to identify their readiness to make changes in their alcohol and drug use. A personalized treatment plan may include individual or group counseling, or a combination of both. A counselor may also discuss referring a student to additional resources, both on and off campus. In addition, counselors will help students identify healthier coping strategies to replace the use of alcohol and drugs. Students and counselors work toward the goal of lowering health risks by disengaging from harmful behaviors. Group treatment can help students know that they are not alone in their struggles with alcohol and drug abuse and can be a safe place to receive support and feedback.
