Counseling & Psychological Services

The mission of Stockton University's Counseling & Psychological Services is to strengthen student learning by minimizing interruption of the learning process caused by mental health concerns. 

Stockton University Counseling & Psychological Services is committed to providing services that do not discriminate based on stereotypes of behavior, values or roles related to age, gender, religion, race, ability, nationality or sexual orientation. Each student will be treated as a unique individual.

Services We Provide:

We are here to help. We provide free, short-term confidential mental health counseling to Stockton students at the Galloway Campus, Atlantic City Campus, or via telehealth. If the needs of students require help from outside providers, appropriate referrals will be made.

Education, outreach, and counseling services are provided by clinically licensed (or license-eligible) social workers and professional counselors, as well as clinical supervised graduate level interns. Our services are provided in a confidential environment in which you may explore and resolve issues of concern.

Individual Counseling

Life's struggles can often have a negative impact on our academic performance. Students can meet for individual counseling to discuss a number of mental health needs. Please be aware that CAPS provides short term counseling and may recommend an outside practitioner if the issues require a higher level of care.

Group Counseling

Students can support one another through group counseling services on a variety of topics and areas of interest. Groups may include coping strategies for anxiety, anger management, LGBTQ + issues, Smart Recovery and Social club.

Psychiatric Services

Students may benefit from psychiatric evaluation and/or medication monitoring as part of their larger mental health treatment. Students must see a CAPS counselor first in order to receive psychiatry services at Stockton University. Please be aware that students must attend their scheduled appointments to receive medication refills. If a student misses their scheduled appointment, medication can not be guaranteed.

Education and Outreach Services

CAPS counselors frequently provide trainings, workshops, and support to other campus activities to enhance the wellness and mental health education across campus. Staff also provide "Let's Talk" sessions in various campus settings.

Uwill

Uwill offers students free immediate access to teletherapy, a direct crisis connection, and wellness programming through its easy to use online platform. Uwill is Private. Secure. Confidential.

Walk in

Walk in sessions are offered as needed Monday through Friday from 9:00 am to 11:00 am and from 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm.
