Outreach and Prevention Services
Our priority is to oversee the development and maintenance of psychological well-being on our campus. To accomplish this goal, we use a three-pronged approach: 1) direct provision of clinical services to SIUE students, 2) consultation for faculty/staff, and 3) education/professional development for all members of the campus community. In addition to this core function, we are a training center, supporting the clinical, supervisory and research acumen of mental health providers across disciplines and levels of education.
Below are the general categories of outreach requests we receive:
-
Materials - Psychoeducational content (information on mental health concerns, well-being, thriving, flourishing and student development).
-
Presentations - Presentations or workshops on topics broadly defined under the categories of mental health concerns, well-being, thriving, flourishing, and student development.
-
Interview - Interviews with a member of the Counseling Services senior staff for the Alestle.
-
NOTE: We do not extend interviews to students for class assignments due to the clinical demands we must meet in the office.
