Statement of Philosophy

The Student Counseling Services operates from a holistic mental health approach to student development. The Center offers a wide variety of programs and services designed to assist students in accomplishing their academic and personal goals. Counseling Center programming focuses on the cognitive, affective, behavioral, and relational needs of students in order to assist them in maximizing their potential for success. The Center’s licensed staff seeks to enhance the campus environment for students by providing individual and couple counseling, as well as crisis intervention. Services are provided in accordance with the scope of practice for each clinician’s field.  In the event a student requires more specialized care than we can provide, Student Counseling Services maintains a list of local mental health practitioners to whom students may be referred.
