*Please note:  The Counseling Department does not provide comprehensive mental health services or around the clock staffing.  As such, students with a mental health diagnosis requiring on-going therapy or medical management are strongly advised to continue treatment with their outside mental health providers.  It is also recommended that they introduce themselves to the professional counselors in the Counseling Department to establish a relationship of support for their time at Manor.
