Mental Health Counseling on Campus
ANNOUNCEMENT
As part of Student Services, mental health counseling services are currently offered in the
Student Health Center, Bldg. 100, Room 120. These services are free to our registered
students. Please refer your students for assistance who may benefit from our services. There is a short intake process with the Health Center Nurse Practitioner to ascertain any
physical or medical issues, then the referral is made to the Mental Health Counselors. Counselor
schedules vary and students are served on a first-come/first-served basis unless they are in
crisis, if in crisis they are given priority assistance. Now is an excellent time to make this
general announcement about services to students because we have appointments available.
Brief examples of some of the issues that student request assistance with are:
Stress
Anxiety
Relationships/Family
Depression
Anger
Loneliness
Panic
Helplessness/Hopelessness
Sleep Disorders
Weight gain/loss
Internet gambling
And more
We offer classroom presentations during the semester. If you are interested, please return this
email and let us know when a Mental Health Counselor can come to your classroom to provide a
short presentation of the services available. It is sometimes helpful for students to connect the
face of a staff member with the services; it is less threatening somehow. Over the years, we
have also provided specific presentations for classrooms upon request such as stress relief,
anxiety coping strategies and other topics. Feel free to call me if you have a specific request. I

time and room number in your email. We will confirm a presentation date with you. Student
