Our Services
Group Counseling
At times issues are most effectively dealt with in a supportive environment where interaction occurs with others. Groups are structured to promote personal growth and skill development by focusing on particular concerns such as self esteem, eating disorders, sexual abuse and college adjustment.
Consultation
The Center's staff is available to share its expertise with University administration, faculty, staff and students. If assistance from other departments, professionals or agencies is indicated, the staff will facilitate such contacts.
