Career Counseling

Counselors offer guidance to those students who are uncertain of their career path. Students are encouraged to explore career possibilities through the guidance of career counselors, use of research materials and career assessment tools.

Mental Health Counseling

College students often experience stressors while trying to balance the demands of their academic and personal lives. Without help, stress and problems can intensify, impacting personal wellness and academic success. Our goal is to help students benefit fully from the college experience by supporting personal, social, and emotional well-being that offers a welcoming environment in which to promote mental wellness including the values of Dignity, Respect, Professionalism, Cultural Competence, and Self-Worth.
