Dougherty Valley HS Wellness Center
Welcome Wildcats!

Open: 8:35 - 3:00

The DVHS wellness center was created to provide a safe, calm space to support emotional management and promote mental health awareness. Students are encouraged to identify their strengths, social-emotional needs, and build resilience to support their overall well-being for a healthy well-balanced high school experience. 

What is a Wellness Center? 

Wellness centers on high school campuses provide increased early interventions for students experiencing social-emotional or mental health challenges that may affect their classroom learning ability. Students can participate in various services, including short "reset breaks," mental health counseling, support groups, community resources, self-efficacy skills, self-care supplies, and more. Wellness services provided to students are free and confidential.

The Wellness Center provides culturally competent services in a confidential, nonjudgemental space with professionals dedicated to improving all students' health, well-being, and educational outcomes.

Anyone can refer a student to the Wellness Center by contacting the student's counselor or the wellness center coordinator directly via email or our online referral form.
