Reminder! Let’s Talk About It: Understanding Suicide Workshop Tues., Nov. 3

Of the 1,100 college students who died by suicide last year, only 15-20% ever sought professional help. However, we know 67% of college students tell a friend they are feeling suicidal before telling anyone else.

How can you help get someone to professional help? Speak up. Reach out. Get Help. AND…be part of our discussion!

Understanding Suicide
Tuesday, November 3, 2015

We have invited a panel to campus to talk about one of the most difficult subjects in our culture: suicide. Join us to learn more about the signs and symptoms of suicidality from a personal perspective. Counselors from SCC Counseling Services will be available during and after the panel. All are welcome.

Join Counseling Services and Brooke Zimmers from Communication Studies to welcome guest speakers Laura Nelson and Laura Philip to our campus. Laura and Laura will increase understanding of suicide by presenting their personal stories and experiences, and sharing what recovery has looked like for them. They will discuss warning signs, ways to get someone help, and what has been helpful for them. We are pleased to welcome these speakers, who have both volunteered with the American Foundation of Suicide Prevention and Forefront: Innovations in Suicide Prevention.

SCC Counselors Gwyn Hoffman-Robinson and Sheryl Copeland will be available to provide information and resources after the presentation.

Let’s Talk About It: Understanding Anxiety Workshop, Wed., Oct. 28

Understanding Anxiety
Wednesday, October 28, 2015
12:30 pm in the PUB, room 9201

Anxiety isn’t always a bad thing. In fact, a little anxiety can motivate you and help you stay focused under pressure, such as when taking an exam or driving your car on a dark and stormy night.  However, when anxiety takes over and interferes with daily activities, there may be cause for concern. The good news – recovery is possible and there are many things you can do to get your anxiety in check and regain control of your life.

Join Counseling Services at our interactive workshop and learn more about how to recognize and manage the signs and symptoms of anxiety for yourself or someone you care about.

Workshop is open to all and no RSVP needed. Hope you can make it!

Questions about the workshop? Contact Sheryl Copeland at scopeland@shoreline.edu or 206.533.6712.
