General impression of focus of well-being for students: Emphasis on proactive services. Smaller staff for actual counseling compared to institutions of similar size. There is no case management services provided students are on their own to find an outside provider if they need one. They provide the bare minimum of counseling center services that are expected today but a little extra.
When will students get referred out and to whom?: The Counseling Center offers limited short-term counseling. If you need or prefer long-term or weekly counseling, then an off-campus counselor may be a better fit for you. The Counseling Center does not offer long-term, intensive, or specialized treatment generally required for substance abuse, eating disorders, or severe emotional difficulties.
How many licensed professionals on staff: 18
Specific mental health focuses - recovery services, eating disorder, sobriety, etc.: Sexual Assault Response Team, Suicide prevention.
Diversity focused resources: Many student cultural organizations to join. Multicultural student affairs office.
How easy is the accommodations process to navigate? Use an accommodations system that students must log into. It is very straightforward and legal with little emotion and little assistance with self advocacy.
