An ongoing concern among college campuses is the number of students who take their own lives through suicide. Depression and anxiety are both at an all time high for this population, and if left untreated and/or the student does not feel emotional relief from their pain, suicide may feel like the only option for them. 

Manor College has a Student Concern Team which is designed to receive reports and identify students who are exhibiting concerning behaviors that may affect the well-being of the student. The team will intervene with students when necessary by providing support connecting them with appropriate resources.

Manor College also has a Mental Health Awareness Club which is co-advised by the Director of Counseling and the Director of Psychology. The club is to bring awareness and acceptance of all mental health issues across campus. It is a safe place for students to get together and support each other, and to offer resources on and off campus if needed.

The Counseling Center seeks to foster a psychologically and socially healthy adjustment to college life for all Manor students. Our overall goal is to provide the support you need to be successful at Manor and beyond.

The Counseling Director offers supportive personal counseling, information and referrals. All services are available free to Manor College students. Strict confidentiality is maintained according to state and federal law. Exceptions to confidentiality include situations where a student is a danger to themselves or others.
