All of our services and programs are designed to contribute to your emotional well-being, in order to help you succeed in school and guide you toward a more fulfilling life.

If you have problems, need information, or are having difficulty with a decision, a professional counselor is here for you. We will listen, care, encourage, and empower you to make decisions that are right for you. Sessions are planned and scheduled around your classes and according to your needs.  If necessary, a referral to a private therapist or community service will be made.  When appropriate, meetings with a psychiatrist for medication management are arranged.
