The mission of the Barton College Counseling Center is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment for facilitation of students' personal growth and development.
Services are confidential and free to full-time students.
Walk-ins are accepted as availability permits. Students may enter counseling through self-referral or referral from faculty, staff or parents. The Counseling Center is primarily for short-term counseling. Other problems that may require medical evaluation or long-term treatment are referred to outside sources. During the academic year the Counseling Center provides programs in the classroom, residence halls, and to the entire campus community.
