Personal Counseling
Personal Counseling offers brief confidential individual counseling, crisis intervention, mental health and substance abuse assessments, and community referrals via telehealth and in-person sessions.
The goal of counseling is to support students in identifying and managing personal concerns, learn more about themselves and make positive life changes. Talking about issues and concerns in a safe and confidential environment can enable students to become more successful in college and life. Benefits of counseling include relief from distressing symptoms; improved emotional health; the acquisition of new approaches to problem solving and decision making; more satisfying interpersonal relationships; and increased insight and understanding of thoughts, feelings and behaviors.
The Personal Counseling Services are provided by licensed mental health providers and interns that are supervised by licensed mental health providers. We are open to all currently enrolled Skyline College students and services are free of charge. Referral information for longer-term counseling is also provided. Call (650) 738-4270 to make an appointment or to learn more. Visit our website: https://skylinecollege.edu/healthandwellness/personalcounseling.php.
