Check out all of this useful information.

There is no substitute for talking with a professional counselor in person! But if you want to read about a personal concern you have "right now," you will probably find the links noted below to be helpful. The information contained in these links can also serve as a starting point for that research paper that is due the day after tomorrow!

Be very careful to exercise good judgement with regard to information you locate and how you might utilize it! Why not talk to one of our counselors about the relevance of the information you find to your particular situation?

COMING SOON!  IT HAS ARRIVED!

This do-it-yourself program allows you to complete an anonymous on-line self-assessment screening of your mental health needs! Are you sad or even depressed? Do you feel like you are on an emotional roller coaster? A "little" anxious or "very" anxious? If your freinds accuse you of having an eating disorder, maybe you do. Are you a social drinker or a "problem drinker"? Have you experienced a traumatic event? Taking this self-assessment may help you develop insight into your situation.   

There is no substitute for talking with a counselor at our office.

The information you obtain from the on-line assessment may be helpful to you and the professional staff at the Personal Counseling Center if you decide to meet and discuss your self-assessment results with us. Please contact Diane here at the office (ext 7119) to schedule your appointment!

Let us know what you think about any aspect of this self-assessment process. We value your opinion!
