Our Mission
At the Student Counseling Center, we are committed to the development of the whole person: academically, personally, socially, and ethically. We believe that a student’s intellectual and personal development are inseparable, and we are here to help students reach their potential as individuals, both academically and personally.
If, for any reason, we are unable to provide the services that would be most beneficial to you, we will work with you to find the appropriate resources and level of care to fit your individual needs.

Quick Coherence Video
Watch this short video as a guide to practicing restorative heart-centered breathing. This can help to improve your self-regulation, center yourself in the present moment, and get focused on what's ahead of you. It can be especially effective when used before an event, such as a class, team practice, or presentation, or any time that you want to adjust your energy levels, either by calming down or becoming energized, depending on your personal needs.
