The Day of Your Appointment
If you schedule a virtual Initial Consultation - You will receive a Microsoft Teams meeting invitation on the morning of your appointment. Included in the invitation will be a link to our online client forms that you must complete prior to your appointment. Once you accept the invitation, you can find it again by logging into MS Teams and viewing your calendar.
If you schedule an in-person Initial Consultation - An email will be sent in the morning with a link to our online forms. Forms MUST be completed prior to your appointment time. You are also welcome to arrive early and complete the forms in our office. They can take 15-20 minutes to complete so please plan accordingly.
Tell us about YOU - You will meet with a counselor for approximately 30 minutes and discuss what will be most helpful for you.
Make a Plan - We always try to recommend a plan that is based on each student's unique needs.
We frequently recommend skill-building workshops, group counseling, individual counseling,
and off-campus services that may be a better fit.
How should I prepare for a telemental health video session with my counselor? We're glad you asked!
- Make sure you have downloaded Microsoft Teams on a device that has a video camera and microphone. You will log in to Microsoft Teams
using your student net id and password.
- Find a private space where you can speak freely and openly without being overheard
or interrupted by others. You may need to ask others in your space to respect your
privacy by doing things like turning on entertainment in another room or listening
to something on headphones.
- You should treat the virtual meeting like you would an in-person meeting. For example, you should be seated comfortably in a chair and dressed and groomed like you were on-campus.
