Loyola University Counseling Center Outreach and Prevention efforts seek to improve the emotional and interpersonal well-being of Loyola students through educational programming on campus. As an integral part of the Counseling Center, the Outreach and Prevention area promotes community awareness of issues that relate to positive mental health. We provide creative, interactive programming that emphasizes a multicultural and developmental perspective as we educate the campus community on wellness issues. Counseling Center staff make presentations to students in classrooms, residence halls, and other student organizations on topics such as stress management, relationship conflicts, grief and loss, body image, how to recognize depressive symptoms, and suicide prevention. We are eager to meet the needs of students, and, upon request, will plan specific programs of interest to particular organizations or groups. Due to the many responsibilities of Counseling Center staff and the high demand for services, we must ask that there is a minimum commitment of 10 audience members for each function. Requests received at least two weeks in advance with several options for dates and times have a greater likelihood of being accommodated. For more information or to make an appointment to meet with a counselor, please call (410) 617-5109. |
