UNK graduate counseling students offer free sessions to community KEARNEY, Neb.(KSNB) — Graduate students in the counseling program at the University of Kearney are offering free counseling services to community members and students. Program leaders said the sessions give students practical experience in the profession while providing a benefit to the community. Sessions recorded for evaluation The sessions will be recorded so the professor can evaluate each student’s work and provide feedback. The recordings will be destroyed at the end of the semester. Douglas Tillman, a professor of counseling at the University of Kearney, said students cover a range of topics. “We will sometimes have people that are struggling with their relationships, they might be struggling at work, they might be struggling with anger, depression or anxiety,” Tillman said. Student describes experience Ingrid Komidomkpo, a counseling student at the University of Kearney, said the program provides real-world experience. “The program is great just having the real-life experience with the professor and being able to communicate, and I also did group counseling here at UNK and it was great . So, I was able to do all those things in person,” Komidomkpo said. Tillman said if the student services are not able to support someone’s needs, they will recommend that person to someone else in the community.
