Our Services

Personal Counseling

The University experience creates many opportunities for challenges and growth. At times, students may have some difficulty coping with these changes and feel stressed, lonely, depressed, or overwhelmed. The University Counseling Center staff can assist students to master these tasks successfully.

Couple and Family Counseling

Problems that are centered in an ongoing relationship may need to be addressed in couples counseling. Services are offered to couples regardless of marital status and/or sexual orientation, as long as at least one of the partners is a current student. If both partners are not available before five p.m., we will make an appropriate referral to other services, which may offer evening hours.

Group counseling

In addition to personal, couple, and family counseling, each year the University Counseling Center offers various therapeutic groups (the non-traditional student, eating disorders, relationships, graduate students, etc.). For more information, call (713) 313-7804.

Consultation and outreach

Educational programs and workshops for residence halls, classes, clubs and organizations on a variety of topics are requested each year. Programs on stress management, crisis intervention, eating disorders, and acquaintance rape are examples of programs that are offered. Consultation/Outreach forms can be obtained by calling (713) 313-7804.  In addition, we are available to consult with faculty, staff, parents, or students who may be concerned about a student. Assistance in crisis management and guidelines for referral are available. Persons who are concerned about a student are urged to contact the University Counseling Center for consultation.

Alcohol and Other Drug Prevention and Education Program

The Alcohol and Drug Prevention Education Program is a unit of the University Counseling Center. The Program serves as the primary campus office concerning education, personal assistance, and information related to alcohol and other drugs. Staff is involved in promoting and educating for low risk, healthy choices through campus outreach programs, classroom lectures, and computerized programs. Confidential individual consultation and counseling is provided to those students with personal concerns related to alcohol or other drugs. Please contact the program coordinator at 313-7804 for more information.

Office for Students with Disabilities

For qualified individuals (verified documentation is required), Services for Students with Disabilities offers specialized services to meet those specific needs that are often required by students with disabilities. This office provides reasonable accommodations to meet the needs of each student and eases their matriculation process through TSU. For more information contact the disabilities counselor at (713) 313-7804.
