Mental Health: Resources

Mental Health Resources

Why is it important to be mindful of mental health as a college student?

The college experience involves major changes that may put college students at risk for struggling with mental health

These include:

  • Academic pressure
  • New social environment
  • Transitioning to independence
  • Finding balance
  • Financial stress
  • Homesickness

Health Services Therapists are available to Full-time traditional students and SAGE residents.

Call Health Services at (610) 606-4640 or visit them at the first floor of Curtis Hall in Room 106 to make an appointment.

Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. (last appointment at 4:00 p.m.). Extended hours available by request.

This is basically short-term therapy and it is FREE to all traditional residential and commuter students and SAGE students residing on campus. You can attend up to 6 sessions per semester to talk things like anxiety, depression, conflict, academics, and college adjustment.
