The Counseling Center's primary mission is to provide high quality counseling services to BSU students that will enable them to accomplish their personal and academic goals. We recognize that BSU's faculty and staff are our partners in this mission and we provide a range of services and resources to support and assist you in helping students find the information and, or help they need.
The Counseling Center provides consultations to faculty and staff regarding any issue concerning a student's welfare. We can help you assess a student's needs, coach you on how to approach and talk with a student in distress, and advise you on the best way to make a referral, when appropriate.
If you feel a student is in crisis, offer to let them use your phone to call the counseling center, or walk with them over to the counseling center. Every effort will be made to provide a same day appointment for the student. See, Making a Referral to the BSU Counseling Center for more information.
Training and psycho-educational presentations are available upon request, as staff time and resources permit, to academic departments, student groups, classes, residence halls, and faculty and staff. Past workshops have included:
If you'd like to request a presentation please complete our online request form, with the topic you'd like us to present, the purpose of the workshop and any issues you'd like specifically addressed.
