  • Let's Talk

    Let's Talk is an informal drop-in service available to students who would like to engage in a brief, problem-solving approach with one of our counselors. “Let’s Talk” isn’t formal counseling or mental health treatment. It’s a chance to briefly share what’s on your mind, find support, and get recommendations. No topic is off-limits!
