MUAC Onboarding - Student Affairs

Marian University’s Counseling and Consultation Services (CCS) is committed to promoting and supporting students’ holistic well-being and educational success through direct clinical services; psychoeducational, outreach and prevention programs, and training for graduate students in the mental health professions. CCS mission is to provide high-quality services for students from all backgrounds. From individual counseling to online resources, the Counseling Center is here for MUAC students at no charge.

CCS provides a range of therapeutic interventions in working with students. These interventions are delivered in a brief therapy model that focuses on helping students make the desired change or reach a specific goal. When a student’s needs require a different type of care than we can provide, we will partner with the student to transition their care to resources in the community. We are committed to making the best match between the needs of students and appropriate services. Some common examples of when a transition of care might be required include:

•  A need or request to be seen more than once a week for therapy
•  A need, or request, for uninterrupted care across semesters or academic years
•  A need for a more intensive level of care or specialized care
•  Requests for letters of support for emotional support animals or housing exceptions
•  Psychological testing for accommodations through the Personalized Learning Center

We have partnered with Bowen Health to provide onsite counseling appointments for students. Hours are posted outside room C115 and appointments can be made using this QR code.

All appointments are confidential and free for students.
