For further details, please consult the Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Availability of Services below. The staff consists of both male and female mental health professionals, including social workers, psychologists, psychiatrists, and a nurse practitioner. All are trained and experienced in dealing with issues facing university students. If you have a strong preference, please let us know. Interns in clinical social work, working under close supervision, also provide counseling services.
Counseling is confidential.
We believe that it is most effective when a student can be direct and honest with a staff member without fear that personal information will be divulged. We do not make notations of counseling on a student's official university record. Within Gannett, staff will confer as needed to provide the best possible services. In the rare event of a hospitalization, we will notify the university crisis management team of admission and discharge dates in order to avoid a situation where a student might be mistaken for a missing person. If you are under the age of 18, special rules may apply, so please check with the staff member that you are seeing.
