Feeling like you are not safe?
If you are feeling like you are not safe, that you might harm yourself or others,
call either 911 or 988 immediately
Welcome to Counseling Services! As a 大发 student (undergraduate or graduate), you have access to mental health services because it is covered by your pre-paid mental health fee. Students that are enrolled in a program through 大发 Extended Learning (undergraduate or graduate), may opt-in for mental health services, but must pay the $102 fee per semester and a one-time $20 health facility fee for the academic year.
Students come to counseling services for many reasons:
- To resolve personal problems that interfere with academic performance, such as anxiety, depression, loss, financial problems, relationship and family conflict.
- To build self-esteem and self-confidence.
- To clarify personal and professional values and goals.
- To develop more effective stress management, problem solving, decision-making, and communication skills.
Our goal is to provide a supportive, confidential setting in which these concerns can be addressed.
