Psychiatric Consultation

Counseling Center staff collaborates with psychiatric interns housed in the Student Health Center who have experience working with college students. The minimal co-payment fees for psychiatric services are generally at the student’s expense.

Educational Outreach

Counseling Center staff can provide educational programs and workshops to student groups and classes. These programs often focus on personal concerns typically experienced by college students. Previous workshop topics have included depression and anxiety, eating disorders, stress reduction (relaxation and biofeedback), and QPR Suicide Prevention.
