Counseling & Wellness Services
Our wellness philosophy is the foundation of all our services. Through empathy and collaboration, we partner with the individual to empower and encourage them on their paths towards autonomy and personal success. We provide comprehensive services that are empirically supported and value all people to develop and improve the wellbeing of students in the community.
