We understand that while the college experience can be exciting, it can also be stressful. Demands on time and deadlines for term papers and exams are all a part of being a college student—and that's just the academic side. There may also be issues in your life pertaining to family, friends, roommates, romantic relationships and financial situations. CAPS is here to help you with a therapeutic relationship providing insight and guidance into such issues. Our staff provide short-term counseling services to alleviate distress and promote healthy habits.
