4. Counseling
   
   Counselors at SHCS offer individual, couples, and group counseling to students, using a short-term model. Students have 6-8 sessions they can use throughout the year. If it is assessed that further counseling is needed at the end of those sessions, referrals are made to a number of community resources. Students access counseling for a variety of concerns, such as:
   
   

   Adjustment to law school life
   Relationships with family, friends and roommates
   Self-acceptance
   Coping with loneliness, sadness or anger
   Family stress, such as divorce
   Traumas, rape, physical or sexual abuse
   Alcohol, drug or eating related issues
   Procrastination
   

   Counselors are also on campus three nights a week. A counselor is on call 24 hours a day and can be reached at 977-2323 for mental health emergencies.
