A Student's Guide to Stress Management provides viewers with a foundational understanding of what stress is, how to manage it, and how it can even be helpful! Grounded in research, but also accessible, this video will help students increase their understanding of stress, and how to turn it into opportunities for growth and success.

Dr. Mark Zetin and Dr. Kristi Kanel explain the important questions in crisis management and offer solutions for clients struggling through the times when their therapists are unavailable. Demonstrations of counseling sessions show how different people manage their crises, connecting with the theoretical positions presented in the first half of the program.

This video reviews important life skills and knowledge development including time management, conflict management, self-advocacy, personal safety, and drug and alcohol use - which are ALL as important as academic preparation in order to be successful in college.
