mission Enhance students’ lives through
confidential, competent, and caring counseling capacities that strive
to encourage and support students in their personal, emotional,
social, academic, and career growth.
To achieve this, staff at times assumes the roles of therapist,
consultant, facilitator, or educator. We are committed to meeting
the needs of individuals from diverse backgrounds—including
differences of culture, race, age, gender, physical and cognitive
abilities, spirituality, and sexual orientation. We celebrate the
unique strengths of every student as we work together to find opportunities
for personal development.
goal Create a safe environment where students
are free to explore their concerns as they adjust to the challenges
of collegiate life. We respect the impact of all emotional, interpersonal,
and situational challenges on student success, and acknowledge the
college experience as a natural time for introspection, experimentation,
and personal growth. Our practice philosophy focuses on relating
to students in a developmental context, and aspires to build solutions
and experiences unique to each individual.
The functions of Counseling Services support the Johnson &
Wales institutional mission to empower its diverse student body
for success in today's dynamic world.
staff Counseling Services is staffed by a professionally-certified
master’s-level clinician. Additionally, the clinic staff within
Health & Counseling Services work together to provide high-quality
care for student needs. We welcome your feedback and requests.
