Concerned for a Student?
Be aware that there is no “perfect formula” for interacting with a distressed student. It is very important to know your personal limits as a helper. It is also important to be mindful that there are times when effectively listening, offering encouragement, and empathizing with the student can help the student feel cared about as an individual and more confident in his or her ability to make decisions during stressful times.
- Approach the student respectfully and ask to speak in private when both of you have the time.
- Give the student your undivided attention.
- Listen to the student's thoughts and feelings in a sensitive, non-threatening way.
- If you have initiated contact with the student, express your concern in behavioral, non-judgmental terms (For example, “I've noticed you've been absent from class lately, and I'm concerned.”)
- Communicate that you understand the student by repeating back the essence of what the student has told you. Try to include both content and feelings (For example, “It sounds like you're not accustomed to such a big campus, and you're feeling left out of things.”)
- Behavior that is strange or inappropriate should not be ignored. Comment directly about what you have observed.
- Do not discuss your concerns with other students.
Circumstances that may indicate that a referral is necessary may include the following:
- The problem is more serious than you feel comfortable handling.
- You have helped as much as you can and further assistance is needed.
- You think your personal feelings about the student will interfere with your objectivity.
- The student admits that there is a problem but does not want to talk to you about it.
- The student asks for information or assistance that you are unable to provide.
When faculty or staff members decide to refer a student FOR MENTAL hEALTH RESOURCES, we recommend the following:
- Speak to the student in a direct, straightforward manner in which concern for the student's welfare is demonstrated.
- Be clear that this referral is based on observations of the student's behaviors.
Immediate Care:
- It is important to remember to take all suicidal/homicidal expressions seriously! Any safety concerns should be directed to the Columbus State Police Department (614-287-2525) or 911.
