Same day appointments are dependent on counselor availability. Crisis Clinic appointments are available Monday through Friday between 2 - 4 p.m. for imminent mental health crises. We ask that students in crisis arrive by 3:20 p.m. to allow appropriate time to address their concerns. These appointments are brief stabilization visits reserved for students experiencing acute distress related to events such as suicidal thoughts/behaviors, acute trauma, and other safety concerns. In addition, all enrolled ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ students always have access to the ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ 24/7 on-call counseling service at 740-587-6647. Students can call this service anytime, from anywhere.

You can call ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ’s 24/7 On-call Counseling Service at (740) 587-6647. These calls are free and confidential within the Hoaglin Behavioral Health Team. You can use this number at any point during the year (including academic breaks) and access it while at home, on campus, or studying abroad.

Counseling services are confidential. This means that we will not confirm or deny your appointment attendance or what you share with a clinician without your expressed consent. If you want us to share information with parents, professors, or others, you can sign a Release of Information form that specifies what information we can share and with whom we can share it.

Limitations to confidentiality mainly involve safety-related concerns, and include:

• Imminent and foreseeable risk of suicide/ending your own life
• Imminent and foreseeable risk of harm to others
• Disclosures of abuse or neglect of a child, an elderly or disabled individual, or animal
• Disclosures of hazing as defined by Collin’s Law and ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ’s Hazing Prevention Policy
• As directed by subpoenas/court orders

You may choose to meet with counseling on an as-needed basis or have ongoing counseling through the wellness center. Frequency of ongoing sessions typically does not exceed every other week.

We recognize that sometimes you may not feel connected with your initial counselor. We want to help you develop self-advocacy, and so we encourage you to share feedback with your therapist about approaches or techniques that are helpful and unhelpful for you. This feedback allows us to adjust our approach and also helps us to pair you with another available clinician as desired.

You can access information about your appointments in the MyChart app. If you miss a class due to an appointment, you can access and share your appointment information with the professor.

Based on guidance from the state licensure board, the Counseling Services staff cannot provide letters of support for ESAs. View the Emotional Support Animal Policy.

Although faculty or parents cannot schedule an appointment for a student, you may choose to have a student call to schedule an appointment during your meeting with them (office hours, advising meetings, etc.). If you need to make an immediate referral for a student in crisis, you can call ¾ÅÉ«ÊÓƵ’s 24/7 on-call counseling service at (740) 587-6647, contact Campus Safety to see if a ride can be arranged, and encourage the student to access urgent walk-in hours at Hoaglin from 2–4 p.m. every weekday. We ask that you please provide us with a brief consultation or reason for the referral before our meeting with the student so that we can fully assess a student’s level of need and risk of harm concerns.
