Have you ever described your home life as “walking on eggshells” because of the challenges of living with someone who uses alcohol or other drugs? Did your “family rules” leave you believing you shouldn’t talk about your experience of home with anyone? If so, this group is for you.
Family Rules, a group offered by Counseling Services, offers education and support for students who have experienced disruption in their family life as a result of the substance use of a family member or caregiver. Each week we will support each other in learning about the patterns our shared history have created in our own thoughts and behaviors, and to find healing.
To learn more, email Katie Barlow or just drop in on Fridays at 1p, Garrison-Foster 2nd floor.

Calling all Swifties! You already know how seriously Taylor’s music hits. No doubt you’ve experienced it stir up a lot of deep thoughts about life, relationships, the future, the past, and lots more. In this group, we select a song each week as the inspiration for our discussion and see where that takes us. Expect a smattering of self-reflection, sharing, support and supporting, culture critique and, to be honest, some hearty scouring of lyrics for all of the many underlying references — Matty AGAIN????
Tuesdays at 4pm in Counseling Services, Garrison-Foster 2nd floor. Drop-ins welcome!
