Individual and confidential counseling with trained therapists.  We take a student-centered, evidence based approach that best fits your needs.  You have the option to choose your counselor or take the first available.  Counseling is for anyone who may be going through a difficult time, who would like an objective listener, or who is looking for help.  If you don't feel the counselors here are a good fit for you, we will do our best to refer you to someone in the community.

Virtually all college students experience the effects of college drinking - whether they drink or not.  The Student Counseling Center offers free, confidential education on alcohol or other substances that is researched-based.  We also provide risk assessment for students who require it.

Some programs that we offer are:

CANS - Cardinals Avoiding Negative Situations - a brief alcohol abuse prevention and harm reduction program.  It is presented as a one-session, interactive discussion course for students who have been referred for or would like alcohol education.

CHOICES - a brief alcohol abuse prevention and harm reduction program for students who have been referred for alcohol education as a result of conduct/policy violation.  It is a two-session, interactive journaling and discussion course.

BASICS - Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention of College Students - targets students who drink alcohol heavily, have faced legal consequences as a result of their drinking, or have experienced or are at risk for alcohol-related problems such as poor class attendance, missed assignments, accidents, sexual assault, and violence.

Marijuana 101 - a fast-paced, relevant, and individualized online course for students who have received a conduct/policy violation for marijuana use.  It consists of an individual assessment with a Student Counseling Center therapist and an online class.
