Welcome message
Responding to and maintaining our mental wellness can sometimes feel like a full-time job. Luckily, there are lots of little ways we can support ourselves. In addition to counseling & talk therapy (click here to schedule an appointment with the Office of Health & Wellness), we can do simple things like moving our body, listening to a guided meditation, and getting a full night's sleep. Check out the links below for more information, links to helpful websites to use in crisis, and more!
