Welcome to the Counseling Center

Welcome to the Counseling Center!

The University of Louisville Counseling Center provides short term individual, group, and couples counseling, crisis intervention, and psychological testing. Our clients seek services for a variety of areas of concern, including psychological, personal/social, academic, and career issues. Counseling Center professionals provide consultation to faculty and staff members, as well as participate in outreach, training, advocacy, program development, and research. Our counselors work in conjunction with the University community to promote a healthy campus environment that maximizes academic success and student retention.

The mission of the Counseling Center is to provide services and programs that support the psychological well-being, holistic development, and retention of University of Louisville students. The Center seeks to promote an environment that is conducive to positive personal growth and educational achievement. We are committed to diversity in the provision of services and in supporting the University community, while honoring the unique needs and concerns of individuals and traditionally underrepresented groups. We are dedicated to achieving excellence in all aspects of service provision, consultation, training, and research.

*Starting Monday, 9/26, we will begin using iPads for clients to complete paperwork electronically. This is a much more efficient way for you to provide information, and helps us move towards becoming a paperless Center. Please bear with us as we try out our new system. Thank you for your patience and cooperation!

Help Us Bring Back the Self-Care Cardinal Fair!

Last year’s Self-Care Cardinal Fair was a success! Designed to help students learn and practice wellness activities, the Fair drew nearly 500 students who enjoyed healthy food and smoothies, a photo booth, giveaways, aromatherapy, chair massages, outdoor games, crafts, music, got to play with dogs from a local shelter, and more.

The Counseling Center stands behind the university’s student retention goals, and recognizes that mental and physical health are essential parts of the picture. We hope that the Self-Care Cardinal Fair provided both an opportunity to have fun, and a reminder that self-care is a vital part of overall wellness.

This would make a great annual event. If your department or organization is interested in helping the Counseling Center by co-sponsoring this event in the future, comment on our Facebook page, or email coping@louisville.edu . Let’s make it happen again!
