Counseling Groups and Events

The ACC Mental Health Counseling team provides counseling groups which vary each semester. Counseling groups bring together people who are going through or have gone through similar experiences. Members with the same issues can come together for sharing coping strategies, to feel more empowered and for a sense of community.

Soundtrack of My Life

Join us for Soundtrack of My Life, a weekly support group where we connect through music that represents your past, present, or future. Each session explores meaningful themes like healing a loss, empowerment, love, hope, and more. Share the songs that tell your story, connect with others, and discover how music can inspire growth and healing. Whether you’re reflecting on the past or looking forward, let your life’s playlist guide you in this journey of self-discovery and community. This group meets six times for one hour beginning February 26, 2025.

Submit a counseling request and enter “Soundtrack of My Life” in the optional field.

Single Momma Cycle Breakers (closed)

Single Momma Cycle Breakers is a support group for single mothers who are parenting children ages 0-18 and are working to break dysfunctional relational patterns from their families of origin.

This group is full and no longer accepting new members.

Homecoming (closed)

Join us for Homecoming, an online trauma support group bringing together survivors of trauma to explore new strategies for managing trauma related triggers, practice integrating coping skills into day to day practice, and support and learn from other survivors of trauma. With research showing that trauma is less about what happened to you and more about how you and your body reacted to what happened to you, we desire to cultivate a safe space online for ACC students that is free from judgement and self judgement as we grow our compassion for the healing journey of each member in this group, including ourselves.

This group is full and no longer accepting new members.
