Student Counseling Services at the Wellness Center

We’re here to help: free, confidential, open this summer

Individual Counseling

We work with graduate students to help with all kinds of personal and academic problems, big and small. Don’t hesitate to come in if you want help or just want to talk things over.

Couples Counseling

Keeping your relationship healthy can be a big challenge in the stressful life of a graduate student. We offer short-term couples counseling to help. Your spouse/partner does not have to be a Graduate Center student, as long as you are matriculated here.

Group Counseling

Meeting with other students going through similar challenges can be helpful. Our current groups include Ongoing Challenges of Graduate Student Life, Multicultural Group, Parenting in Graduate School and LGBTQ Group. See our website for descriptions of each group.

Academic Consultations

We offer individual consultations to help you with your academic issues. We work with you on the obstacles to progress, and help you develop strategies to overcome them. These consultations have been very successful and popular.

Walk-in-Hours

We now have walk-in hours during which students are free to come in without an appointment. A staff member will see you for a brief consultation, listen to your concerns and decide with you which services would best meet your needs. Over the summer, the walk-in hour is Mondays 2-3PM.

Referrals

If you are interested in a kind of mental health service that we do not offer at the Wellness Center, we can provide a referral.  We are knowledgeable about low fee and in-network providers near the Graduate Center with a range of expertise.  We can help walk you through the steps of following up with an appropriate provider.
