 Mental Health

Many students find themselves struggling in the university environment, whether from the transition to college as a freshman or stress from trying to balance academics, time management, and emotional/relational challenges. Some are able to problem-solve with the support of friends and family and some students need extra support and guidance. An objective viewpoint can be helpful in putting difficult issues into perspective, so they become more manageable. 

快播鈥檚 Counseling Services Department is committed to creating an environment where students holding diverse identities feel welcomed, heard and understood. Our Counseling Team is available on campus to support students through empowerment, advocacy, encouraging growth and change, building resilience, and fostering connections and engagement within our campus community. 

Students access Trine Counseling Services for various reasons such as stress management, homesickness/adjustment to college, identity issues, relationship issues, mood challenges, test anxiety and more.

Our 快播 Counseling Center Staff Clinicians can provide a wide range of therapeutic interventions and are skilled at addressing many concerns that are common in a college setting. The Counseling Center Team is committed to delivering quality care and can provide short-term, solutions-focused mental health services to Trine Main Campus Undergraduate students. If a student鈥檚 needs cannot adequately and ethically be met by the Counseling Center鈥檚 resources, and/or if a student requires more long-term, intensive treatment and/or requests additional supports that extend beyond Counseling Services short-term, problem-solving model of therapy; The Staff Clinicians will work with the student on an appropriate referral to best meet student鈥檚 specific therapeutic and/or medical needs.  

These therapeutic mental health counseling sessions are free and confidential, and no information regarding treatment will be shared with other entities, including family or university personnel, without the written consent of the student receiving services.

The ultimate goals of 快播鈥檚 Counseling Services Center are to assist students in achieving their academic goals, build meaningful connections, and prepare for the future in the healthiest manner possible.

It is the intent of Trine's counseling services to facilitate emotional and psychological development which can make a positive impact on academics, decision-making, and student retention. The counselor works to help students resolve problems that may impede personal, social, and academic functioning while emphasizing prevention, development, adjustment and overall wellness.

Students come to counseling for several different reasons including depression, anxiety, and relationship difficulties. In addition, it is quite common for students to experience overwhelming feelings of loneliness, isolation, disappointing academic results, and career indecision. Counseling services offers a healthy way to handle these challenges and stressors. The counselor will determine what services are the most appropriate for the student and if it is decided that the student's needs can be best met elsewhere, then a referral will be provided.
