Mental Health Information

Here at the Counseling Center we see students who have a variety of concerns. Most students can benefit from learning stress management, a lifelong skill which is especially useful when people begin their professional lives. In addition to stress issues, we commonly see students with depression, anxiety, eating disorders and interpersonal concerns. Often these issues are exacerbated or caused by substance use. We have included information on some of these issues below. You may also want to access the other resources listed below for additional information.
