The purpose of this booklet is to provide faculty and staff with information about the services of the personal counseling center, referral information, and how to assist Rollins students most effectively. The staff at the counseling center hope that this information is helpful to you throughout the year. The counseling center has a staff of qualified mental health counselors and trained, advanced-level counseling graduate students who offer counseling services to students. Arts and Science undergraduate students who are currently enrolled at Rollins are eligible for a confidential counseling appointment. During this appointment, the student and counselor will discuss counseling options which may include individual, group, or couples counseling at the counseling center.
All services provided by the counseling center are free, voluntary, and confidential.
The staff is committed to providing counseling services and preventive programs which promote personal and academic success as well as the psychological well-being of students. The counseling center is located on the first floor of McKean Hall behind residential life, facing the lake. Counseling takes many different forms depending on the roles of the people involved. Friends counsel and support each other through giving advice, listening, and providing whatever assistance is needed. Counselors in career services, academic advising, and other university offices routinely provide counseling on issues that are important to the student s life, academics, future, and well-being.
