Your Turning Point

The college years mark a time when students engage in self-exploration and change. At times these changes are intentional and understandable; at other times they are unpredictable, chaotic and upsetting. Each year over 1100 students seek out the staff of the University Counseling Services to help them gain perspective and to lay the groundwork for personal change. For many, the change can become a ‘Turning Point’ in their lives.

University Counseling Services (UCS) and its divisions of Collegiate Behavioral Health (CBH) and Prevention & Recovery Services (PRS) offers students help with their personal counseling and behavioral health needs, including individual, couples and group counseling, psychiatric medication management, stress management and recovery support. Our offices are staffed with psychologists, social workers and consulting psychiatrists.

Most services are provided without cost but some of our specialty services may require a fee.
