Students
The Counseling Center
The Chicago School in Partnership with The John Marshall Law School
Law school can be a fast-paced, competitive environment, and some students find it challenging to balance responsibilities among school, family life, work, and other activities. To help students balance, perform optimally, and achieve their academic goals, The John Marshall Law School has partnered with The Chicago School to offer reduced-cost, confidential consultation, support and counseling services for John Marshall students. The Counseling Center offers one-on-one and group counseling and consultation, workshops, programs, and events for the school's community, and referrals and resources on a range of topics.
Reasons some students come to The Counseling Center:
- Transition to Chicago
- Coping with stress
- Academic struggles
- Problems with a faculty or staff member
- Relationship and family issues
- Confusion about career and future
- Balancing work and school and everything else
