Counseling Services
Reggie Jones, Director of Counseling Services
The Counseling Service provides students with an opportunity to explore their concerns and problems with a professional psychotherapist or psychiatrist in a confidential setting. The college years are times of accelerated growth, significant challenges and considerable stress. Counseling services are available to help students with the variety of concerns that arise during these intense four years. It is possible for you to make an individual appointment with a counselor, or to schedule a meeting with a small group to discuss a conflict situation. A counselor can assist you in dealing with the emotional nature of conflict, allowing you to work through the issue on your own or with others.
Testimonials
"I didn't think mediation would help, but it did."
"The dialogue itself was very well-run and helpful. I only wish it would have happened much sooner."
"Although my problem with my roommates is something larger than I believe any sort of mediation could fully fix or help - the mediation session was very helpful in being able to fully express my emotions in a neutral, non threatening setting. My mediators were kind, patient and helped us realize the different points of view within our argument. I would definitely recommend mediation; even though it seems as if it wont help; even if it doesn't fully fix a situation - it's important to have a resource on campus that can offer neutrality and order. Overall I was very impressed with my peer mediators."
