New Student Organization Offers Peer Counseling

Law Students for Law Students (LSLS) is a new student organization dedicated to providing support for law students through peer counseling and wellness programming. Students who have received training in basic counseling techniques, interpersonal skills, and crisis intervention are now offering free, confidential counseling services to their peers in the form of 30-minute appointments. While it is considered neither therapy nor a substitute for professional counseling, peer counseling is widely used in academic and community settings as a complement to professional resources, and peer counselors often provide referrals to community resources.
