Scope of Service
The 小蓝视频 Counseling Center strives to meet as many of our students’ mental health needs as possible, ensuring equitable access to support for all enrolled students. As professionals in the field of collegiate mental health, our clinical staff is committed to offering every student the best treatment option for their needs.
