9-8 COUNSELING CENTER

The Counseling Center provides services to enable individuals to understand themselves and deal effectively with their environment.  Psychologists, counselors, and psychiatrists are available to evaluate and help students in all areas of personal concern including:  academic and career decision-making and planning; dealing with educational difficulties; developing satisfying relationships; working to change self-defeating behaviors (drug and alcohol abuse, eating disorders); and coping with stress or emotional crises.

In addition to one-to-one counseling for individuals and couples, workshops are offered throughout the year on topics such as vocational exploration, test anxiety reduction, and stress management.  Faculty and staff seminars on counseling related issues may be arranged by request.

Counseling services are available to enrolled students without cost except for a minor materials cost for career testing.  Appointments are available on a limited basis, and a counselor is on call 24 hours a day through Student Health Service.

Faculty are encouraged to contact the Center if they have concerns about a student.  All counseling is strictly confidential.

Þ Additional information and appointments: Counseling Center, Student Health Center, 2815 Cates Avenue, Raleigh, NC 27695-7312, 515-2423.
