Mission Statement

The mission of counseling services is to support the intellectual, emotional, social, and cultural development of students by offering a wide range of counseling, consultation, and educational services. These services help students resolve personal difficulties, and acquire the skills, attitudes, abilities, and knowledge that will enable them to take full advantage of their college experience. All students, regardless of race, gender, ethnic background, age, religion, citizenship or disability are welcome. We seek to foster intercultural competence to promote awareness and empathy within a multicultural environment.

Confidentiality

Professional ethical codes and state and federal laws consider the personal information discussed in counseling to be confidential. All information gathered in counseling, including the fact that you have come to counseling is held in strict confidence. Exceptions to this will be discussed by the counselor.
