Counseling Center
The Counseling Center is connecting with current clients via phone and is working on setting up telehealth as an option for those clients going forward. Any student can call for an urgent/ crisis consultation during our regular business hours. We will help students interested in beginning therapy to connect with community providers that have openings for new clients via telehealth. This is a stressful time for each of us that may impact your well-being. Take time to exercise, talk to friends on Facetime, work on a project you haven’t had time for, and keep up with your academic work. See our website for more resources on self-care, coping, and wellness.
