SCHEDULING APPOINTMENTS

Students are able to schedule appointments by contacting the Student Counseling Services in person or by calling Katie Kruszewski the Administrative Assistant at 860-439-4587.  Students are assigned to a counselor for an initial evaluation.  If ongoing counseling seems appropriate after the initial evaluation, the staff may recommend individual or group psychotherapy or both.  Some students may be referred to the consulting psychiatrist for medication evaluation.  In some cases, students may be referred to off-campus service providers for more intensive or specialized treatment.  The staff will make every effort to see students promptly who do not have a scheduled appointment yet have immediate needs.

MISSED APPOINTMENTS

Because demand for counseling appointments is considerable, a 24-hour notice is required to cancel an appointment. Students who do not keep a scheduled appointment or who cancel the appointment without appropriate notice will be charged a fee for missed appointments. To cancel an appoiontment, call 860-439-4587

AFTER HOURS

Students on Campus having mental health emergencies after hours may contact their House Fellow, House Governor or Campus Safety for supprt or to access other services.  The Student Counseling Services on-call clinician will be contacted by the Administrator-On-Call as needed.
