The SCC provides a variety of counseling services for students. Presenting problems range from mild situational stressors to acute mental health conditions.
Services available to students include crisis intervention, psychiatry, and individual, relationship, and group therapy. We provide brief or short-term therapy. Students that need long term therapy are welcome at the SCC and we have providers able to provide help in finding services outside of the SCC.
The SCC is committed to providing high-quality care and services to all UT students. We actively pursue this by providing culturally responsive counseling services, specialized training for our staff, participation in community events that promote diversity and inclusion, and exemplifying a welcoming, compassionate presence within the Volunteer community.
Group Therapy
Groups offer a unique setting in which peer interactions facilitate self-improvement and the alleviation of suffering. Participants often feel less alone in their struggles, with the group providing a sense of community.
Single Session or Short-Term Counseling
SCC offers short-term, goal-focused, individual counseling services. A counselor will help you determine which services are available and most appropriate for your needs and goals.
Psychiatry and Medication Services
Individual and group counseling often provide effective treatment for mental health concerns, but sometimes medication and psychiatric services may be beneficial.
Emotional Support Animals
The evaluation required for Emotional Support Animal (ESA) documentation is not a service we offer.
Please consult your insurance carrier for referrals to community providers who can provide this evaluation and documentation.
