The Office of Counseling Services advances the educational mission of High Point University by providing quality psychological interventions, outreach, consultation, and referral services to address the mental, emotional, social, and academic needs of High Point University students.

WE ARE HERE TO HELP.

We provide exceptional services and programming focused on student mental health. 

*Care – We demonstrate unconditional positive regard for each individual.

*Respect – We value the diversity and uniqueness of every student.

*Support – We support the community through advocacy, prevention, and educational outreach.

You do not need a scheduled appointment to speak with a licensed clinician. Students may walk into our office Monday-Friday between 8:00 am – 4:40 pm to complete a 15-20 minute triage appointment. To engage with our office, students will need to go through the triage screening process.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, please do not email us or leave a voice mail and wait for a returned call. We want you to receive help immediately. In the case of emergency, please follow the instructions listed on our Mental Health Emergencies page.

Need a referral to a local mental health provider? Students may access the External Community Provider List here. Please note that the list is only accessible to individuals with a High Point University e-mail address. We also recommend using the following site to locate a provider off-campus in your area: http://www.psychologytoday.com

If you are a community provider and would like to be added to our database, please fill out the External Community Provider Form.
