WELCOME TO THE VSU COUNSELING CENTER!

Our office focuses on short-term, solution-focused therapy, in order for our staff to accommodate high demand for counseling services. As a result, we will limit each student to a total of six personal counseling sessions per semester. If a student requires more intensive services to meet their needs, we will assist with connecting the student to community-based providers.

All students are reminded that the Counseling Center maintains 24/7 mental health emergency access. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, please contact one of the following: 

-Call the Counseling Center (229) 333-5940 at any time:
