| PERSONAL COUNSELING/PSYCHOTHERAPY: The Counseling Service offers individual and group counseling for students seeking to work through personal problems. Students come in for a variety of reasons, including emotional, social, and other personal concerns. We help students to: gain a greater understanding of themselves and their values; identify problems and attitudes which contribute to them; explore alternative courses of action; and develop skills to cope with the problem(s). Sessions are strictly CONFIDENTIAL and Private. All Services are free for any FDU student. MISSION: The Wellness Center-Counseling Service complements the academic experience of the student body by facilitating healthy personal, social, and intellectual development of our students. Life circumstances, skills deficits, and/or mental health problems may at times interfere with a student's ability to successfully achieve important academic and life goals. Our unique environment and role allow us to help students identify their problems, manage their emotions, learn new problem-solving skills, and successfully meet the academic and social challenges of university life. This is accomplished by offering: * Counseling, Diagnostic Evaluation, Psychotherapy, Advocacy, and Mental Health Referrals * developmental, preventative, and remedial counseling to university students * consultation, educational and training services to the university community * experiential workshops on essential life skills (i.e, Assertiveness, Stress Management, Sleep Hygiene) | David Mednick, Psy.D.Co-Director, Student Counseling and Psychological Services, Metropolitan Campus--Doctor of Psychology Degree (Psy.D.) in Clinical Psychology - 1990, Yeshiva University-Albert Einstein College of Medicine Campus--New Jersey Licensed Psychologist since 1992 --Listed in the National Register of Health Service Providers in Psychology since 1995 --Professional Member: American Psychological Association; New Jersey Psychological Association; National Academy of Neuropsychology; National Police Defense Foundation --Affiliated Practitioner/Clinical Neuropsychologist - Bergen Neuropsychology Group, Englewood, NJ Student Union Building telephone: (201) 692-2174 fax: (201) 692-2642 Office hours: Monday-Friday 9-5 by appointment.
