Personal issues, family, emotional and other concerns can be challenging and may have an impact on your academic, personal and overall functioning. C-CAPS provides safe, non-judgmental and confidential services that include individual and group counseling and workshops. Staffed by psychologists and professional counselors, C-CAPS can help with the transitions and stresses of college life as well as with other psychological concerns or difficulties. Services are currently being provided in a hybrid manner - both remotely via phone and video conferencing and in-person. Initial consultation meetings are typically held remotely.
