• Counseling Services

  Counseling Services at Aquinas College provides a safe environment where students can openly express their thoughts and feelings to a counselor who serves as an objective listener. Counselors are available to support students through concerns they may encounter while at college.

  What is Counseling?

  Counseling is when a trained professional counselor helps a student get through difficult times by talking in a supportive and safe atmosphere. Counseling is a way for the student to become more aware of what may be going on in his or her life. It is an opportunity for self-assessment and discovery. Through talking with a counselor and receiving an outside perspective on an issue, a student may come to some conclusions about what they want to change in their life. The reasons for counseling vary greatly. The goals of the session will vary person to person. Those goals are worked out with the counselor and the student.

  Individual Appointments

  Counselors provide personal counseling for traditional age and continuing education students. Any student who is registered in at least one class is eligible to receive counseling services. The counseling department also provides assistance with career guidance for those who are having difficulty choosing a major. Counseling staff are available for scheduled individual appointments. Walk-in hours are also held Monday through Friday from 2 to 3 p.m. All discussions between students and counselors remain confidential.
