Georgia Southern University – Center for Addiction

The Georgia Southern University Counseling Center is located on Cedarwood Drive in Statesboro, Georgia. This center offers behavioral health counseling services primarily for their students who have co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders.

They are located on the campus of Georgia Southern University, close to restaurants, student facilities, and local businesses. They’re also close to the East Georgia Regional Medical Center and Route 301. Local natural landmarks can also be accessed including Luetta Moore Park, Statesboro Bulloch County and Forest Heights Country Club.

Free Counseling for GSU Students

Services offered to students include individual, one-on-one counseling and group therapy sessions. Therapy is available at flexible times to accommodate students’ educational and work-related needs. In addition, they offer you crisis intervention services, if you are experiencing a mental health or SUD crisis situation and are in need of immediate care to address and/or treat those conditions.

I love that services are offered at no cost to students who are currently enrolled at Georgia Southern University. Services are provided to licensed and professionally trained mental health care providers. Care can also be accessed both in-person and through telehealth care.

Free Workshop and Drop-In Groups

I think it’s great that they also offer you free workshops and drop-in groups, regardless of being a client at the Counseling Center. They offer flexible locations for meetings including online, in-person, on campus and through a hybrid setting. Workshops include confidence building programs, de-stress programs and self-care clinics.

Outreach and Workshop Requests Available

The staff is there for outreach and workshop requests. They provide presentations and offer staff member participation at student events to help in spreading the word on de-stigmatizing mental health and other co-occurring disorders.
