Student Counseling Services

The UCC offers free counseling and outreach programming to currently enrolled, on-campus students. Our multi-disciplinary team uses a variety of treatments and resources to help students address concerns ranging from academic stress to trauma. The UCC utilizes a solution-focused model which encourages individuals to envision their desired future and develop actionable steps to achieve it, making therapy more efficient and time-effective. If a student needs further support, supported referrals are used to connect students with on-and off-campus resources, as appropriate. We are available for crisis intervention, yet we recommend 911 emergency services when the crisis is life-threatening.

The UCC also facilitates campus outreach, groups and workshops throughout the year.

To schedule, please call 307-766-2187 or come to 341 Knight Hall during office hours.  

Some students may experience concerns that cannot be addressed by the UCC’s flexible model of care. The UCC is always available to meet with students and assist them in accessing appropriate services either on-campus or in the community. Some common reasons students are referred to other services include: 

• A need or desire to be seen weekly for individual therapy 

• A need or desire for uninterrupted services from semester to semester 

• A need or desire for a specialty treatment or modality we do not provide 

• A need or desire for intensive outpatient, partial hospitalization, or inpatient care 

• Comprehensive psychological assessment to identify concerns such as ADHD, Learning Disorders, Autism Spectrum disorders, etc. 

• A need for court mandated assessment. 

• Students who are currently receiving care from another mental health counselor. This does not apply to students interested in accessing groups, workshops, or crisis services. 

• Students needing medical detoxification and/or medical stabilization 

• Students needing or wanting documentation for Emotional Support/Service Animals

• Students needing or wanting documentation for housing accommodations
