The Center serves as the connection point for mental health and well-being at Michigan Tech, aiming to promote and advance the health and well-being of our students. We focus on four facets of the Be Well Initiative: Connect Well, Recharge Well, Live Well, and Play Well. Our services are culturally conscious, innovative, and evidence-based.
At our center, we provide individual counseling, group therapy, medication management, educational programming, and outreach events. Each semester, we may add special events or additional services in response to reported or observed needs.
The main goal of the Center is to provide students with the most effective, least intensive form of mental health support required to meet their needs. By using a stepped-care model approach, we assist students in identifying where their needs are and the best options to achieve their goals. The plan established with a counselor is subject to change as a student&rsquo;s needs increase or decrease.
We believe that individual counseling is only one of many potential beneficial options, so the Center and TELUS Health use short-term, goal-oriented individual counseling to serve students. However, we understand that stressful situations or crisis situations can arise, so TELUS Health offers around the clock support through their app or by phone call, and the Center offers 30-minute walk-in appointments every weekday on a first-come, first-served basis.
