Let's Talk is a program offered by our embedded clinical counselors.  Appointments are like mental health “office hours” to discuss campus and community resources that best fit your needs.  

• Conversations with embedded clinical counselors are private consultations.
• Let's Talk appointments are 15 minutes long, and there is no fee.
• No paperwork is needed ahead of time (minimal demographic information will be gathered to track who we are reaching).
• Appointments involve a brief discussion about your concerns and information about resources on- and off- campus.
• A list of embedded clinical counselors can be found here.

Disclaimers

• Let’s Talk is a consultation only. Let’s Talk is not counseling.
• Let’s Talk conversations are not part of students’ releasable records.
• Although Let's Talk counselors are mental health professionals, Let's Talk consultations do not constitute mental health treatment.
• Limits to confidentiality include when there is an immediate threat of harm to you or others. Let's Talk counselors are required by law to report this.
• When a minor, vulnerable adult, or animal is being abused, Let's Talk consultants are also required by law to report this.
