Services for Students

Individual, Couple and Group Psychotherapy

Individual Counseling

is available to all currently enrolled Cal Poly students to help them deal with a wide variety of concerns including making the adjustment to college, self-esteem and confidence issues, depression, anxiety and difficulties in relationships to name but a few. See the FAQ section for additional information regarding what happens when a student comes to Counseling Services for a first session.

Couples Counseling

is also available, as long as one of the partners in the couple is a currently enrolled Cal Poly student. Couples can be married or dating, heterosexual or homosexual. If you have a concern about some significant aspect of your relationship feel free to bring your partner with you to the session so both of you can discuss your concerns with your counselor.

Group Counseling

consists of meetings of small groups of students who share a similar concern. A wide variety of groups are commonly offered each quarter, focusing on specific topic areas such as relationship issues, women's support, stress management, adults molested as children and gay, lesbian and bisexual issues. Because the group offerings change on a frequent basis, please check the Mustang Daily or call Counseling Services to find out what groups are currently being offered.

Consultation

takes place when a student comes to Counseling Services to ask for information about a specific topic area in psychology or to seek advice regarding how to be helpful to a friend in need.
