Counseling Center

Our professional counseling services are provided free to current students and their dependents when classes are in session. We provide brief, solution-focused counseling in an individual or group setting. Our services are confidential and comply with state and federal law (FERPA). Examples of the kinds of issues we regularly deal with include academic, personal and family, depression and anxiety, drugs and alcohol, relationships, and sexuality. We are a resource to contact if you are having concerns about your son, but confidentiality laws limit our ability to share student specific information with you. We have posted walk-in hours and are available by phone or email to schedule other times to be seen.
