Counseling and Psychological Services provides individual therapy from a personalized care model. Our team of clinicians help students who are experiencing concerns that interfere with your ability to be successful in school or in your personal growth.

Individual Therapy

Students may find it helpful to see a therapist for clearly defined treatment goals in a brief, short-term therapy model. Our individual therapy services are best suited for students who are ready to engage in professional support and able to make steady progress between sessions. Common concerns that our clients focus on in individual therapy include managing depression, coping with social anxiety, and addressing relationship challenges. 

Individual therapy appointments are available at the Counseling and Psychological Services main office as well as in embedded therapy locations throughout campus.

Single Session Therapy

Single Session Therapy is designed for students who have a specific mental health goal, want to develop a plan without a recurring treatment plan, and want to work independently after the appointment. An appointment typically lasts 45-60 minutes, focusing on your immediate goal. You will leave the session with specific and manageable strategies.

Students not currently engaged in ongoing therapy with Counseling and Psychological Services who believe their concern can potentially be addressed in one meeting are eligible for a Single Session Therapy appointment. In preparation for your appointment, we encourage you to start thinking about your specific goal(s) for our meeting and any previous strategies that have been unsuccessful. If desired, you have the option to request a short-term, goal focused treatment plan after the single session. 

Students certain they are seeking short-term, goal-focused therapy should schedule an initial appointment in place of a Single Session Therapy appointment.
