What should I expect?

The initial appointment will provide you with an opportunity to discuss your issue/concerns with a counselor in a confidential setting.

• Typically, these appointments last approximately 30 minutes.You and your counselor will discuss your current concerns and come up with a plan to get you help you need.
• We will ask you to arrive to the center 15 minutes before your appointment to complete initial paperwork. If you do not arrive 15 minutes prior to your appointment, you may need to be rescheduled.
• Many students find that the first appointment is sufficient to meet their needs and concerns.Other students may require ongoing support. Regardless of your situation, your counselor will listen to you and evaluate your situation, and determine what internal/external resources/referrals are a best match for you.
• These resources/referrals may include services offered at CAPS or a referral to other campus or community services.
• If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, please provide 24 hours notice so that we can give that appointment time to another student.
• You will receive an email or text reminder the day before your appointment.
