During your first visit, we collaborate to develop a plan that will be most helpful for you. This could be: individual therapy: usually meeting for 5-7 sessions, for 45-50 minutes; or referral for specialized therapy in the community or medication evaluation.

Yes, we typically recommend a minimum of 5 sessions to see progress toward your goals, and a limit of 12 sessions per semester. If you believe you will need more sessions than what we offer in a semester, we recommend you use the Uwill virtual program, or speak to a SEU counselor to find referrals for off-campus therapists.

Our counselors offer free 10 minute consultations to determine if counseling is a good fit for you. We also have a free mental health assessment on our website to help you determine if your mental health is of concern.
