Off-Campus Referrals
Some students prefer to work with an off-campus mental health provider, especially those looking for ongoing, longer-term, specialized, or more frequent or intensive services. Most insurance plans have online listings of private therapists and agencies covered by their plans (look under “behavioral health care”). If you are having difficulty finding a provider, our counselors are available to help with this process (just set up a meeting and let the receptionist know this is what you are looking for).
