These groups reported less counselor self-efficacy and higher levels of acculturative stress than Caucasian FBCSs, highlighting the importance of with-in group differences, such as …

Supporting Students With Post-Acute Sequelae Of Sars-Cov-2 Infection: Applying Lessons Learned From Postconcussion Symptoms, Susan C. Davies, Julie Walsh-Messinger, Noah Greenspan

Counselor Education and Human Services Faculty Publications

The SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes the COVID-19 disease, has swiftly infected millions of people since it was first identified in late 2019. While much remains unknown about the virus, it is increasingly clear that many survivors (including children and adolescents) struggle with ongoing symptoms for months after they receive a negative test.

The National Institutes of Health recently started using the term “post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) infection,” and we encourage its use because the term more accurately refers to the symptoms and complications experienced after the virus is no longer detected via testing.

Many PASC symptoms resemble persistent symptoms …
