Counseling & Wellness Services

What happens when I call for an appointment?

• An appointment will be made for the initial assessment. Students scheduling will be offered the first available appointment time that best fits their needs.  Every effort to meet requests for a same day or urgent appointment are made but are dependent on availability. 
• The first appointment is an opportunity to discuss your concerns and for the clinician to understand you and your individual needs
• The decisions about the appropriate treatment are made on an individual basis. Some will participate in counseling for just a few visits while others seek ongoing therapy
• There are times that a community-based referral may be necessary to maximize your care. The clinician will help make that determination and provide you with necessary information whether it’s for medication or a specialized area within the counseling profession
