2024 KEYNOTE ADDRESS

ATHLETIC COUNSELING TEAM FOR THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN

The Athletic Counseling Team at the University of Michigan is a dynamic, diverse team of licensed professionals embedded in the Michigan Athletic Department.  The Athletics Counseling Team (ACT) consists of Social Workers, Professional Counselors and Psychologists cross-trained to provide a full spectrum of care and meet the unique needs of Division I Varsity Student-Athletes.   Athletic Counselors are trained in many treatment modalities and come with a wide variety of experiences to meet the mental health and mental performance needs of varsity athletes on the campus of the University of Michigan. 

Coaches, teachers and mentors are some of the most influential people in a young person's life.  When a young person has a coach, teacher or mentor who understands and demonstrates care and curiosity about their whole health – including their mental wellness – it increases the likelihood that the young person will seek help when needed.  The University of Michigan Athletic Counseling Team will share trauma informed, diverse strategies on how to talk about mental wellness with young people, what to look for,  and how to address concerns.   They will share tips on how to create a culture of safety within a team or group setting.  In addition, they will share what an Athletic Counseling Team does in a Division 1 Athletic Department and talk about Mental Health trends and needs for this generation of student-athletes.
