Peer Mental Health Educator Program
About the Program
The Peer Mental Health Educator Program is an important part of the UCI Counseling Center’s outreach and prevention services. The program provides psychoeducational opportunities that help UCI students develop practical skills to support their mental health, reduce the impact of stressful life experiences, and respond more effectively when challenges arise.
Peer Mental Health Educators develop and facilitate workshops and training sessions on a variety of mental health topics, consult with student groups, promote Counseling Center services, and support campus outreach programs. They also assess emerging student mental health needs, provide individual stress-management and relaxation training, and complete a special project that contributes to the program and the Counseling Center.
Peer Mental Health Educators receive weekly group supervision and support from the Program Coordinator and Associate Coordinators, as well as individual consultation when needed.
