Learn to Live - Online CBT therapy programs
Let’s Talk - a program that provides informal virtual and in person drop-in consultations for U of M students throughout the academic year. No appointment is necessary, so you can drop in during the scheduled times. Let’s Talk is not a substitute for formal counseling and does not constitute mental health treatment, but counselors can listen to specific problems, provide support, help explore solutions and give information about other resources.
Responding to Student Suicidality: The purpose of this free online course is to discuss the topic of suicide, teach you ways to respond to students when engaged in this topic, and support students in accessing appropriate mental health resources.
Effective U Tutorial on Stress: College is a major transition time. The pressure of balancing college life, work, and social activities can be complicated. Finding new ways to manage that stress is important.
Student Counseling Services: Offers individual short term counseling, support groups and workshops, referral services, drop in counseling, and crisis services.
The Care Team: Provides brief case management, support and resources to students as they navigate the University and pursue their academic and personal goals. Care Team staff operate in a non-clinical capacity and do not provide formal counseling or therapy to students, but connect students to the appropriate resources as needed.
