Small Group Counseling

                                                 Small group counseling involves a counselor working with two or

                                        more students together. Group size generally ranges from five to eight members.

                                        Group discussions may be  relatively unstructured or may be based on structured

                                        learning activities. Group members have an opportunity to learn from each

                                         other. They can share ideas, give and receive feedback, increase their awareness,

                                        gain new knowledge, practice skills and think about their goals and actions.

                                                Group discussions may be problem-centered, where attention is given to

                                         particular concerns or problems. Discussions may be growth-centered, where general

                                             topics are related to personal and academic development.
