Find it Fast Main Menu Home Departments Mental Health Mental Health Services Mental health counseling services (also known as therapy) can help students who are struggling with emotional / interpersonal issues so that they can ultimately be more successful in school. Students who have had traumatic experiences and/or who are experiencing symptoms of depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, etc can sometimes experience challenges with school attendance, behaviors at school, and focus on academics.
