Interview Questions

For my documentary on the UK Counseling Center, we found that some people we could interview were people who work there, such as psychologists, and possibly students who go visit there.

Questions I/we came up with to ask the professional are:

1. What are the most common issues students come share with you?
2. What in particualr made you want to work with college students?
3. Is there a reason why you chose to work at UK?
4. How frequent do students come visit that have mental health issues?
5. How do you help the students that come in with depression, anxiety or any stress related issues.

Questions I/we came up with to ask the students are:

1. Is the counseling center easy to access?
2. How often are they usually available for you to go see?
3. What makes them want you to keep coming back?
4. Would you ever advise someone with a mental health issue to visit this center?
5. Do you think they are helpful with the problems you seek them about?

I think interviewing these two types of people could help reach out to students by having them see real life people and how they react to this center. For some students admitting themselves can be the hardest part, but if they get the chance to see that there are people here to help them, it can create a safe gateway for these students.
