Counseling Information
Access to Services
Students generally need to schedule an appointment in order to meet
with a counselor. Arrangements will be made to see a student in crisis
as soon as possible. Should you seek services with us, in your first
visit with a counselor, you'll be asked to talk about your concerns.
At that time, your counselor will work with you in deciding whether
the services offered by our staff will best meet your needs, or whether
a referral to another office/agency would be in your best interest.
Personal Counseling
Personal counseling focuses on such concerns as self-esteem, interpersonal
communications and relationships, stress management, and crisis intervention.
Some of the specific issues we deal with are anxiety, substance abuse,
depression/suicide, conflicts with parents/spouses/children, dating
issues, coping with past or present abusive situations, and grieving.
If you have a personal concern and aren't sure where to go for help,
our staff will likely be able to assist you.
Career Counseling
Our office offers several assessment tests (MBTI, Strong). We also
have a career center with a computerized program called CIS that will
help you explore your interests, abilities, and values and give you
specific information about careers. HD 208, a Career/Life planning
class, is also offered each term to assist with career decision making.
Educational Counseling
Help in resolving academic problems including test anxiety, academic
petitions and financial aid petitions, is available through our office.
HD 100 College Success and Survival classes are offered for new students
to assist with their college adjustment and long-term educational planning.
Confidentiality
Information from counseling sessions is confidential and will be released
to individuals outside of the Counseling and Testing Services only
with your prior consent. More information on this policy is available
through our office.
