In person or Virtual Therapy Options 

First Two Weeks of Classes

The first two weeks can be challenging as students adjust to college for the first time or as a returner. To ensure that every student has the opportunity to utilize our services, we are offering only Same Day/Urgent Appointments from August 26th—September 6th. 

Recurrent and standard counseling appointments will begin on September 9th. To schedule an appointment, please call us at 515-216-5100.
