The counseling center is open during fall, spring, and summer semesters and closed during breaks. Appointments can be made Monday through Friday.

Forms

• Counselor Disclosure Statement (Caleb Flatau)
• Counselor Disclosure Statement (Teresa Regan)
• Telehealth Counseling Informed Consent

Note: The Counseling Center is not the best resource for all problems and situations. We provide services in keeping with DigiPen’s goals (student academic success), within our business hours, and in keeping with the structure of the Counseling Center. The Counseling Center does not provide services for those needing long-term intensive psychological treatment, substance-abuse treatment, 24-hour-on-call availability, or whose treatment has been mandated by the legal system or an employer. In these instances we will make appropriate referrals.

• Short-Term Individual Counseling

  DigiPen’s on-campus Counseling Center offers free short-term, one-on-one counseling for all students. Students are allotted 12 sessions per academic year, with a limit of 6 per semester. You can talk to counselors about a variety of common concerns including stress management, depression, anxiety, homesickness, and many others.

• Online Mental Health Screening

  This online mental health screening tool provides a brief self-assessment test for depression, bipolar disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, alcohol use disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Each screening will take four to five minutes to complete. Your screening score is not diagnostic but rather informative. When you click on the link above, you will be transferred to a different website. A core value and objective of this screening is to preserve participants’ anonymity. Because DigiPen does not manage the screening website, we cannot identify you through your responses.

• Off-Campus Resources

  If you would like to seek advice or resources outside of the Counseling Center, we’ve put together a short list of local and national off-campus resources to help you start your search for more information.
