Counseling for College Students

Being a college student can be both an exciting and scary time in one's life. Leaving your family and social networks while entering a totally new environment—combined with the challenge of meeting educational expectations—is a difficult transition for everyone. Many students have difficulty adjusting to their new lives while at the same time discovering who they are, or who they would like to become.

For these reasons, we find it important to be readily available for this population and offer crisis intervention. Crisis intervention involves not only being available to answer a phone call or text, but also meet with the student in short notice. We are willing to meet college students at both Cornell and Ithaca College campuses. Additionally, our office at 318 N. Aurora St. is located by the bottom of Cascadilla Gorge, within walking distance of Cornell’s campus.
