Students come to Mental Health Services for a wide variety of reasons.

Talking to students about Mental Health Services can be a difficult and uncomfortable conversation for both parties, but it is an important one to have. It is up to the student to decide whether they seek services, but expressing your concern may give them the opportunity to reach out for help.
