An emergency/crisis experience is individually based, depending on what it feels like for you based on your “normal.”  We encourage students to contact the counseling office or come in for an emergency/crisis session if they feel it is indeed one and is needed.  We prefer to see you, and please know that you will be seen as soon as a therapist becomes available.  Walk to the Student Life Office in Janzow Campus Center and you will be directed with next steps.  Some examples of a need for an emergency/crisis counseling session include:
Imminent suicidal thought and/or a plan
Imminent homicidal thoughts
Gross impairment in thinking ability
Exhibiting bizarre behavior
Experienced a recent trauma
