The staff in Counseling Services are here to help you with your mental, emotional, behavioral and interpersonal functioning, so that you can effectively achieve academic success.<\/p>\n<p>Personal or psychological counseling offers you the opportunity to talk about social, emotional or behavioral problems that are either causing you distress or interfering with your functioning. Counselors are trained professionals who can respond to your concerns in an objective and non-judgmental manner. The counseling relationship is unique in that it provides a safe forum for you to speak freely, knowing that what is shared will be kept private and confidential.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to our counseling services, we also offer a number of wellness services including, but not limited to, our flex space that holds weekly activities like Yoga, our relaxation room that provides students a quiet and safe space to engage in self-care and coping activities, our adult coloring station that provides students an opportunity to engage in a healthy coping skill, our nap pods that provide students with a chance to recharge and reset for the rest of their daily responsibilities, and our wellness presentations that provide students with information about various wellness topics.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-146008 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/chronicle.hvcc.edu\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/Yoga-Pic.jpg\" alt=\"person on beach doing yoga in the sunset\" width=\"264\" height=\"191\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you are in need of some support, please contact Counseling Services to schedule an appointment with one of our Mental Health Counselors.
