Office of Health & Wellness

Your dental education is a time of great excitement, challenge and commitment.  It is an opportunity to explore your career path, meet new individuals and grow as a professional in your field.  As you embark on this journey, we understand life happens and are here to ensure you have the resources and support necessary to navigate through academics, family, relationships, social life and more.

Services offered by the Office of Health & Wellness include:

• Individual counseling
• Crisis intervention 
• Wellness workshops and activities

Counseling services are provided to students at no cost, at a time convenient to your schedule. Appointments are offered in person and virtually. Common reasons students seek out support include navigating feelings of depression, anxiety, stress or worry.

Services are provided ethically and confidentially by a licensed therapist, usually in a short-term solution-focused model. 

Each person who seeks counseling services can expect to be treated with respect, recognition and understanding for whom they are regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, culture, class, sexual orientation, religious affiliation and/or disability.
