Welcome to Psychological Counseling Services

Psychological Counseling Services (PCS) helps students cope with stress or troubling personal problems that may interfere with their academic life. Everyday problems such as work stress, financial concerns, illness, family pressure, and relationship issues can be distracting, making it difficult to concentrate on coursework. Our goal is to assist you through our various services and help you manage life challenges that can hinder your academic progress.

Emergencies

If you are in immediate crisis, please call 911 or the Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255).

How to Get Started with Us

If you would like to explore whether counseling is right for you, the first step is to come during Drop-In hours:

  • Second floor of the Student Health Center: Monday through Friday from 11 to 12 p.m. and 2:00 to 3:00 p.m.
  • No appointment is necessary for this brief assessment as students are seen on a first-come, first-served basis.

    Confidentiality

    Privacy and confidentiality are fundamental rights to all who use our services. At PCS your right to privacy is respected, meaning that no information about you is released to anyone (except as required by law,) and that no information appears in any other departmental or university records without your written consent.
