One of the most common struggles in college is how to manage the stress and anxiety that comes with trying to balance the demands of a college student. From classes and work to family and romantic relationships, there are a wide range of factors. The Mind Spa can help!
While counseling can be helpful, most people benefit from learning new ways of managing their stress on their own.The Mind Spa is located at 120 Memorial Union, 1st floor by the ATM.
