Professional school counselors need not withdraw from helping students with addictions, but rather, school counselors need to be effectively equipped to help students with addictions by being familiar with the warning signs of addiction, being able to effectively screen students for addictions, and then competently refer students to professional therapists specializing in addictions. Mind Zone contribute to the efficacy and ability of the professional school counselor to support, challenge, help, encourage, and advocate for students with addictive disorders. We help professional school counselors grasp the significance of the digital age students are living in, assess the positive and negative consequences of technology and the Internet, and understand the ever-increasing problem of Internet addiction and a few related addictions. Also, we offers insight into an Adlerian perspective on addiction, gives resourceful information on effective and research-based interventions to be used as models for the effectual treatment of students with addictions, provides screening questions and tools for counselors to used during assessment, and includes a list of warning signs of various addictions in students for school counselors to reference when a potential addiction is suspected.
