For every active Millersville student (part-time or full-time), you can recieve up to 5 free sessions per semester. As long as you are regerstered for the upcoming semester, you could recieve sessions during winter and/or summer break.

Yes, we do. Our Psychatrist, Dr. Biuckians, has one to two sessions per month on Wednesdays. In order to recieve a visit with the Psychatrist, you must meet at least once with one of our counselors to be reffered to the wait list.

Psychiatric services at the Counseling Center include evaluations and short-term medication management. If you have an existing prescription, we encourage you to continue working with your current provider. Learn more about our Psychiatric Services policy. 

Generally we offer individual and group counseling sessions, pet therapy, and light box therapy. You can find additional student support resources about anxiety, depression, academic stress, mindfullness, self-compassion and more on our Sharepoint.
