Individual Counseling
Individual counseling services are designed for students who can benefit from short-term counseling. Counseling is provided by Dr. Denna Sanchez, Coordinator of Psychological Services and graduate interns under close supervision by Dr. Sanchez. Individual counseling services are designed for students who can benefit from short-term counseling. If the situation requires longer-term counseling or possible medication management, the student will likely be referred to an off-campus resource.
Group Counseling
Group counseling provides a safe environment for you to learn more about yourself and your interactions with others. Each semester we offer a variety of groups including, women’s issues and stress management. A brief screening with the group leader(s) may be required prior to becoming a member. If you are interested in group counseling, come in or call to schedule a screening appointment.
