Counselling Services: Groups and Workshops (revision)

Posted by Counselling Services on January 22, 2014 in General Announcements

Drs. Shannon Johnson and Melissa McGonnell will facilitate a group for university students who have a diagnosis of Asperger’s Syndrome/Disorder or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), February - March, 2014 (dates and times TBD).

The goal of the group is to help people with ASD adjust to and cope with the social and academic challenges often experienced in university. This group will also provide opportunities to meet other university students with ASD and learn about social and academic resources available at university.  It is open to students of Dal, King’s and NSCAD.    

If you are interested in learning more or registering for this group, please contact the Dalhousie Counseling Centre, (902) 494.2081 or recepcps@dal.ca
