PSYCHOLOGICAL
SERVICES
A clinical psychologist is
available to offer counseling services as well as assessments and
evaluations. These evaluations focus on identifying personal,
social and academic challenges that may be interfering with
successful matriculation through the university. In addition,
at the student's request, the psychologist will collaborate with
physicians involved in the student's care to discuss the most
effective means of providing assistance (e.g., medication, etc.)
Educational programs are offered on
various mental health topics. Faculty members may request
presentations that address the concerns of college students and that
complement course content. For example, programs on student stress, career
decision making, eating disorders, and substance abuse are often
requested.
