The Counseling Center appreciates your referral of students to our services. Please know that we conduct an assessment and consultation with all students who seek mental health services at the center.
In some cases, due to the short-term nature of our services, we may assist with referrals to off-campus providers. This happens when it is clear that a student's concerns would be better served by a provider who can offer more expertise and/or longer term services.
The Counseling Center staff is available to provide consultations to professors, administrators and departments concerning student mental health needs. If you desire such a consultation, please contact us at extension 910.962-3746.
The university has contracted with ComPsych EAP Services to provide assistance to employees and their dependents. Services include confidential employee & family member assessments and self-referrals, management consultations and referral services, fitness-for-duty evaluations and support, crisis intervention services, case monitoring, and a broad range of web-based resources, using an extensive network of behavioral health care providers.
The EAP services are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year via a dedicated phone number.
