Let's Talk
Let's Talk is a brief, confidential, individual consultation with a counselor to explore whether or not they should try counseling, to have a single brief conversation about a specific issue, to ask a question, or to express concern about a friend. Let's Talk is not a substitute for counseling or urgent care but is a great place to start.
Let's Talk consultations are in-person and first-come, first-serve.
For more information check the Let'sTalk website.

Tips for Creating a Private Space for an Appointment
- Be alone
- Shut doors and windows
- Turn on a radio, tv, or white noise machine outside of your space
- Use headphones
- Schedule your appointment during a time when others may not be around
*Counselors' Zoom Meetings will be "locked" so that they can be sure they are admitting only you at the time of your appointment. Please do not try to reach a counselor via Zoom at times you are not scheduled to meet. They may be meeting with other students and unable to speak with you, and counselors do not monitor private rooms at all times. Zoom is not a platform for seeking CTC crisis services
