Discover Center for Wellness and Well-being Navigation Guide
At the Center for Wellness and Wellbeing (CWW) we provide a holistic range of timely, inclusive, culturally appropriate and effective mental health services to our diverse student body which includes free, confidential, and short-term individual counseling. The CWW also provides professional consultation to faculty and staff and promotes the personal wellbeing of students.
All psychological counseling records are kept strictly confidential and are not part of a student’s academic record. In special circumstances, exceptions to confidentiality may be required by law. Learn more about CWW's Confidentiality policy.
Sometimes personal problems require more assistance than can be found within your own circle of support. Speaking to one of our counselors can often help to identify the problem, assist in developing more effective coping strategies, and increase knowledge of available and effective means of support. Examples of personal problems include: stress management, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, sexual orientation and/or identify concerns. CWW is here to help you manage your mental health with a variety of resources and support.
