Services Offered
Individual counseling is the primary service offered to students. Concerns frequently addressed include: personal goal attainment, interpersonal relationships, anger management, and family and social problems.
Group experiences provide opportunities for skill development in such areas as decision-making, assertiveness, communication, and interpersonal processes.
Sometimes students present problems that are beyond the scope of the Center and are better handled by another department or agency. If students need services not available on campus, the staff will refer them to local resources. Off-campus counseling costs are the responsibility of the students and/or their families.
Students in crisis are assisted by counseling center staff and members of the student engagement, enrollment, and success team.
Upon request, counselors can offer programs to organizations, classes, or residence hall groups on issues of mental health and healthy living.
Counseling service is confidential. We cannot share with anyone, inside or outside of the College, that the student is receiving services unless the student signs a specific release of information authorizing us to do so.
