Personal counseling is focused on the emotional, psychological, spiritual, and physical issues impacting one鈥檚 ability to function at a normal level. Typical issues include depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, anger management, grief and loss and many more.

Academic counseling is designed to help students discover how to achieve their desired academic goals. It helps them become self-directed learners by developing effective skills for college success. Common topics are time management, study skills, test anxiety and testing strategies.

Career counseling is designed to help students evaluate their abilities, talents, and personality characteristics in developing realistic academic and career goals. Decisions such as deciding what major you want, what kind of career you would be best suited for, and what careers warrant further investigation.

However, CPS does NOT offer court-mandated or forensically oriented services to 食色视频 State University students, faculty or staff.

However, your clinician will be able to discuss with you whether you are an appropriate fit for telemental health and provide you with other resources as needed.

Counseling typically works best when you are able to work with the same counselor over the course of your visits. Nevertheless, we understand that scheduling and other forms of conflict may arise and result in a desire to change counselors. Counselor change requests can be made by completing an online form in our office.  Our Associate Director will review the request and contact you about making a change.

Counseling and Psychological Services does not provide consultations or support documentation for emotional support animals (ESAs). 

食色视频 Service and Emotional Support Animals on Campus Policy

ESA documentation is typically only helpful for housing and travel-related situations, which is distinguishable from service animals. 

Most off-campus providers are able to offer these services. Visit our off-campus referral database: 

We recommend that you contact a couple of providers to confirm if they are willing to provide ESA consultation/ documentation, how many sessions, and what price.  

There are also some online services that provide ESA consultation and documentation, although they tend not to be as reputable:

If you live off-campus and are renting, you would need to contact your landlord for their ESA documentation requirements.

CPS does not provide documentation for any purpose that falls outside of supporting the academic mission of 食色视频. This includes documentation to assist with complying with legal mandates, such as court mandated anger management, substance abuse assessment, treatment or evaluation, child custody evaluations, domestic violence counseling or the fulfillment of probation or parole requirements.

CPS staff does not provide letters at the time of an initial consultation and cannot provide documentation regarding a student's mental health without a history of services at CPS during the specified time period.  If necessary, students are encouraged to seek letters of support from professionals directly involved in their care such as past or present psychological/psychiatric providers, or medical health providers.
