Groups
Sometimes, students come to the Counseling Services with problems that may be more effectively addressed in a group counseling setting. Counseling Services' staff facilitate several groups each academic semester. We welcome suggestions for groups.
ADHD Support Group
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, can interfere with your academic progress. ADHD can make it difficult to focus, organize, plan. Though you may take medication for your ADHD, there may be residual symptoms. If you have ADHD this group is designed for you to learn how to manage your symptoms.
Active Minds
Active Minds is a peer advocacy group that seeks to bring awareness and remove the stigma of mental illness. Active Minds members participate in campus-wide events and national programs related to mental health awareness. For more questions about the organization visit Active Minds.

Man Up!
The goal of this group is to provide male students attending N.C. A&T opportunities to discuss issues, gain insight, and expand knowledge base regarding manhood. Students regularly attending this group will develop a personal concept of what makes a male a man. Students will have the ability to articulate thoughts, feelings and ideas while increasing preparedness for leadership.
Walking to Relax
Mindfulness is a method of training the mind that is growing in popularity. There are a wealth of research and brain imaging studies demonstrating its effectiveness. Mindfulness involves learning to pay attention to the present moment rather than worrying or dwelling in the past. The practice is learned through simple exercises that strengthen attention and focus, and help you to manage and prevent stress.
