Living with the impact of a global pandemic can be overwhelming for anyone, much less for college students whose goals have been abruptly sidetracked and who now face a series of unknowns.
The recent academic interruption not only affects students’ educational pursuits but their mental health as well. Many are experiencing high levels of anxiety about their future, fear of the unknown, grief or loss of their college experience, and difficulty adjusting to new ways of life.
Prior to mid-March when the COVID-19 pandemic hit, students were able to visit the University of Mississippi Counseling Center to meet with counselors and work through worrisome issues in person. They no longer have that option.
In response, clinicians have been trained to provide telemental health and students can receive the help they need. To learn more about this online counseling service, call (662) 915-3784 or email counslg@olemiss.edu. You can also read more about the transition to online sessions: https://news.olemiss.edu/tele-mental-health/.
While needs are being met at the moment, this new service demands additional training costs, technology upgrades and new equipment installed in counselors’ homes. Private support is crucial to the counseling center’s continued operation, providing mental healthcare to Ole Miss students during these troubling times. Please help support the University of Mississippi Counseling Center with a gift today.
The University Counseling Center shifted last week to telemental health as a sole-service delivery platform. These services can be offered only to campus community members who are physically located in Mississippi. Your gift helps address the costs associated with this necessary transition.
Detailed information is available on the UCC website, including information for out-of-state students about referrals. Your support allows us to provide for the mental health needs of all our students, faculty and staff.
The University Counseling Center is available to students free of charge. Your support allows the center to continue offering vital services at no cost. During a crisis such as a pandemic, more students could certainly need this resource.
The University Counseling Center is completely confidential and no records of counseling are contained in any academic, educational or personnel files. When you give to the Counseling Center, you help provide this completely confidential service that supports our students' well-being.
The University Counseling Center provides support for student concerns such as stress, grief, eating disorders, panic attacks, sleep problems, substance abuse and relationship violence. These needs don’t disappear despite a global pandemic. Your support ensures these essential services are available for current and future Ole Miss Rebels.
