Free counseling sessions for all students
There are as many reasons to seek counseling as there are people. Explore personal challenges with a counselor at your own pace in one-on-one, confidential dialogue.
Your counselor will ask questions to understand your concerns and how they fit into your life and worldview to support you in navigating your life.
You don't have to face life's challenges alone.
The Counseling Center hours begin at 8 a.m. for calls, appointments, and drop-in appointments. We book sessions as far as two weeks out. Telemental health sessions are also available.
You begin counseling with an intake session. You'll fill out paperwork and your counselor will ask background questions. The intake also gives us a chance to match you with the best counselor for your needs. You can schedule follow up sessions after the intake.
You can schedule or drop in for concerns that require immediate attention or a consultation that’s not a therapy session. We talk about your needs and next steps to help you.
Confidential help for on and off-campus supports and services that include wellness, diversity awareness, education, Title IX concerns, wrap-around care with other campus departments, and connections to community-based services.
We can refer you for medication evaluation and follow-up with our Medication Specialist or referrals for off-campus resources. The specialist visits weekly with limited space. Evaluations are $50, follow-up appointments are $25.
Confidential and safe help processing instances of sexual assault or violence with a trained professional—if you're unsure if the experience "counts," concerned about talking about it, or want help with the next steps.
Counseling Center staff are available to consult with students, faculty, staff and parents as needed while maintaining client confidentiality. Your counselor can answer specific questions.
