PERSONAL COUNSELING/PSYCHOTHERAPY: The Counseling Service offers individual and group counseling for students seeking to work through personal problems. Students come in for a variety of reasons, including emotional, social, and other personal concerns. We help students to: gain a greater understanding of themselves and their values; identify problems and attitudes which contribute to them; explore alternative courses of action; and develop skills to cope with the problem(s).


Sessions are strictly CONFIDENTIAL and Private.
All Services are free for any FDU student.


MISSION: The Wellness Center-Counseling Service complements the academic experience of the student body by facilitating healthy personal, social, and intellectual development of our students. Life circumstances, skills deficits, and/or mental health problems may at times interfere with a student's ability to successfully achieve important academic and life goals. Our unique environment and role allow us to help students identify their problems, manage their emotions, learn new problem-solving skills, and successfully meet the academic and social challenges of university life.

This is accomplished by offering:

* Counseling, Diagnostic Evaluation, Psychotherapy, Advocacy, and Mental Health Referrals

* developmental, preventative, and remedial counseling to university students

* consultation, educational and training services to the university community

* experiential workshops on essential life skills (i.e, Assertiveness, Stress Management, Sleep Hygiene)
