How do I know I need Assessment or counseling?

Peer pressure about drinking or taking drugs can be stressful and overwhelming.  Assessments or counseling can also be ordered as a result of arrest and legal requirements, or student conduct academic requirements.  Students seek counseling for a variety of reasons.  Any substance abuse issue of concern is a legitimate topic to explore with the counselor.  Assessments can determine if you have a substance abuse problem.

What happens in a counseling session?

Sometimes students shy away from counseling because they do not know what to expect.  The ASAC offers a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you may speak privately yet openly about thoughts and feelings.  The ASAC Counselor can help you gain insight into your concerns about substance use and abuse and explore options for change.  You and your counselor focus on your concerns; however, decisions about solutions for issues are yours to make.

What if I don't want anyone to know I'm seeing a counselor?

Confidentiality is taken seriously at the ASAC.  Only you have the right to tell others that you are speaking to a counselor.  The ASAC staff are ethically and legally bound and committed to maintain your privacy.  There are specific exceptions to confidentiality that will be explained when you initiate counseling.
