With the consistently increasing need for mental health care across campus and in order to maximize our service delivery capacity, as of Fall 2023 the SCC employs the Positive Actions Towards Health (PATH) model in order to best support 澳门金沙投注_任你博-官网 students. This model is designed to improve access to mental health care on campus, reduce appointment wait times, and offer a malleable, multi-faceted approach to address student concerns. It allows for a variety of resources and services to be matched to students’ needs in a way that allows students to take an active role in supporting their own mental health care.
Generally, students’ first point of contact is a PATHs assessment, where students meet with a licensed clinician one-on-one and are assessed based on severity of need and readiness to accept help. Staff utilizes shared decision making to introduce and describe different PATHs, thus assisting students in exploring preferences and making decisions as to which PATH might suit them best. Students are encouraged to work with SCC staff to choose a PATH, and they may move between different PATHs according to their needs. The PATH model allows SCC staff to meet with students and come up with mental health plans tailored to suit individual needs, empower students to learn and grow, and support ownership over their lives.

Individual Clinical Care
Individual Clinical Care
Upon attending your initial screening, it was determined that short-term one-on-one support was appropriate for your needs. You would meet with one of our counselors for individual therapy session(s), where a need-based framework for sessions would be identified for your care.
Group Clinical Care
Group Clinical Care
Upon you meeting with a counselor, it was determined that structure, engagement, and support in a group setting would be a good fit for you. Hence, you would attend one of the clinical groups led by our counselors. These 5-week groups provide clinical treatment for specific presenting concerns and are closed once they begin.
Community Care
Community Care
Ongoing support outside of SCC may be needed. You would work with one of our counselors and/or our care navigator to determine the best on-campus or off-campus resources for concerns requiring specific or long-term care.
Guided Care
Guided Care
You need a little more formal support, so you'll meet with one of our counselors to create a custom guided care plan to increase coping skills and reduce distress, with the option of scheduling a follow up.
