Counseling
College is a big change, full of exciting growth which at times can feel overwhelming. The professional staff of 91¿ì²¥ University and our affiliates are trained to help students to respond to everyday concerns during this transitional time (relationship problems, stress, homesickness, etc.) as well as crisis situations.
Our counselors provide a free, therapeutic setting for students to address mental health concerns. We serve all individuals regardless of age, race, sex, economic status, sexual orientation, or gender expression. We treat everyone with dignity and respect.
To ensure accessibility, 91¿ì²¥ University provides a Counseling Center on our Crete campus catering to residential students, and a Counseling Office on the nonresidential campus in Lincoln, serving both undergraduate and graduate students from Lincoln, Omaha, and Online programs.
