In order to avoid dual relationships, students who receive counseling services through CPS, may not concurrently or subsequently work at CPS (as a practicum student, intern, student worker or graduate assistant, etc.). Psychological services are provided by doctoral and masters level licensed mental health professionals who hold faculty-status at the university, and thus are called Faculty Counselors. Services are also provided by masters and doctoral level student counselors in-training under the supervision of professional faculty counselors. Students who require more intensive, long-term or specialized psychological services not offered by CPS will be offered referrals to appropriate services in the community. Counseling services provided by CPS are confidential, within the limits of applicable laws.
