Counseling Center: Individual & Group Counseling
The RMU Counseling Center is currently offering a hybrid model of both in-person and distance counseling (teletherapy).
During your initial consultation appointment, you and your counselor will discuss which Counseling Center services might be most appropriate for you. These may include:
Supportive Appointments: Students may be recommended for up to 3 supportive appointments per semester for targeted problem-focused concerns.
Individual Counseling: Students may be recommended for up to 8 individual counseling sessions per semester for presenting concerns including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, grief or loss, peer or family concerns, relationship concerns, life-altering events, etc. Additional sessions may be recommended on a case-by-case basis.
Group Counseling: Students may be recommended for group counseling if it is determined that group would be beneficial for the student’s presenting concerns. Groups are created as the need for a group arises. Past groups have included grief or loss, body image concerns, transgender and gender non-conforming peer support, interpersonal concerns, mood disorders, and general coping skills. The available groups will be discussed when you meet with a counselor.
Community Referrals: If your presenting concern is beyond the scope of practice of the RMU Counseling Center, you may be referred to a community provider. Examples include, but are not limited to, severe eating disorders, drug and alcohol counseling, and needing to attend counseling more than once per week.
