Counseling Services assists students in overcoming personal, emotional, and psychological issues in order to support them in achieving their academic, personal, and professional goals.
Each Lander student’s University experience is, ideally, a time of personal as well as intellectual growth. Sometimes personal problems can develop which make it difficult for a student to achieve success. Counseling Services helps students in dealing with these problems once they occur.
Personal Counseling is available at no charge. These counseling sessions are confidential and tailored to accommodate each student’s needs.
If more long term or specialized services are needed, counselors can make referrals to off-campus resources. Personal counseling is accessible by appointment or on a walk-in basis for students willing to wait for counselor availability.
The Office of Counseling Services offers:
- Personal and individualized counseling sessions
- Group counseling sessions
- Substance Use awareness programs
- Student development educational programs
- Student development issues and concerns
Some common concerns are:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Family problems

How Well Are You?
Lander University provides free wellness screenings. If you decide to complete one of these screenings, you will learn if how you are feeling, acting, or behaving could be a symptom of something more serious. If this is the case, please call Counseling Services at 864-388-8885 to schedule an appointment with a counselor.
