Welcome to the CSU Counseling Center and the Counseling and Academic Success Clinic!

We are a dedicated staff of psychologists, social workers, counselors, psychiatrists and graduate trainees working together to provide counseling services filled with caring, respect and confidentiality. 

We support and empower our diverse student community with psychological services designed to help you navigate toward your personal and academic goals. 

We offer a variety of services including:

  • Short-term individual therapy
  • Group therapy
  • Psychiatric consultation
  • Referral for long-term therapy
  • Outreach and prevention services
  • Services offered in-person or by telehealth

Our services are free, except for a small fee for psychiatric services. Sessions are strictly confidential except in unusual circumstances such as life-threatening situations.

Schedule a screening to get started. The first step in getting connected to the Counseling Center or the Counseling and Academic Success Clinic is to complete a 25 minute referral screening over the phone. The counselor will learn about your main concerns and connect you with support options tailored to your needs. This could be group therapy, individual therapy, campus resources, a referral to an off-campus provider, etc.

To get scheduled for a referral screening you can walk in (RT1235 or JH210), call 216-687-2277 or schedule online.
