What are Peer Counselors?
PCs are a group of trained students supported by the Counseling Center who are here to provide additional resources to our students as they navigate difficult decisions, points of crisis or everyday aspects of student life.
Welcome to Peer Counselors Association
Our peer counselors, and peer coordinators are available to help you make transitions, navigate campus resources, and talk through difficult situations. Speaking with a trained peer counselor, a peer liaison, or a freshman counselor can often help you sort through your feelings, thoughts, or problems in a stress-free, zero-judgment conversation. These students can also connect you with a variety of campus resources depending on your needs and interests. Sometimes, you may simply need insight from someone who knows what it’s like to study or live at Yale.
What you'll get from us
- Active listening skills, without being intrusive
- Empathy and sensitivity.
- Good communication skills and the ability to dig deep into a student's psyche
What we do
Limtless learning, more possibilities
