Mental Health Screening Tools Please NoteThe information contained on this page is not meant to replace face-to-face consultation with a trained counselor, nor does this page provide online counseling. In addition to utilizing this page, students are encouraged to stop by our office and make an appointment with one of our counselors. The links below may make references to services and offices located at other universities. Please contact the SUNY Fredonia Counseling Center (SFCC) at (716)673-3424 if you have questions about the availability of similar resources on the SUNY Fredonia Campus. Lending LibraryThe SFCC has an extensive self help lending library available in our office. Please feel free to stop by and browse through our selections. We have books on many different topics such as alcohol, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, grief, rape, sexual abuse, relationships, AIDS, and study skills, just to name a few. We also have many audio and video tapes, pamphlets, brochures, flyers, handouts, and other materials avaliable for student use. Some of the resources are available in our waiting room, but if you can't find what your're looking for, just ask. It is not necessary to be a current client of the Counseling Center in order to borrow a resource; just be sure to sign out one of the selections with our receptionist. [ Back to Top ] Journal WritingJournal writing can be a valuable means of self-exploration. Unlike keeping a diary, writing in a journal may be sporadic; many people find it helpful to write only when they are upset. In addition, your writing can take the form of lists or just a series of thoughts jotted down rather than a more narrative format. Another useful journal technique is to write "never to be sent" letters to those who have made you feel angry or otherwise upset. If you are interested in giving journal writing a try, the following web sites may be helpful:
[ Back to Top ] Mental Health Screening AssessmentsHave you ever wondered if your mood swings might be a sign of depression? Do you have issues with food that might be related to an eating disorder? Have you thought that a friend might have a drinking problem? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, but still are not sure if counseling is for you, you may benefit from participating in one of the following online screening programs. These free, anonymous screenings take only a few minutes to complete, and you will receive immediate feedback about your results. (Please note that it is important to print out the results of any screenings which you take, especially if you wish to discuss these results with a counselor, as we have no way to access this confidential information.) The following links provide brief self-assessments for several complaints common to college students. They are not designed to replace face-to-face counseling services, but may assist an individual to determine whether or not they should seek out such services.
