PSYCHOLOGICAL SERVICES



Welcome to Psychological Services of Skyline College

Psychological Services offers brief confidential individual counseling, crisis intervention, mental health and substance abuse assessments and community referrals.

The goal of counseling is to support students in identifying and managing personal concerns, learn more about themselves and make positive life changes. Talking about issues and concerns in a safe and confidential environment can enable students to be more successful in college and life. Benefits of counseling include relief from distressing symptoms, improved emotional health, learning new approaches to problem solving and decision making, enjoying more satisfying interpersonal relationships, increased insight and understanding of thoughts, feelings and behaviors.

The Psychological Services Office is staffed by licensed mental health professionals and is located in Building 2, Room 2221. Psychological Services is open to all currently enrolled Skyline College students and is free of charge. Referral information for longer term counseling is also provided.
