Counseling Center
Welcome to the Counseling Center. We provide counseling services to assist students with various life concerns.
The CSU Counseling Center joins the Columbus State University community in expressing our grief and compassion for the racial injustices and tragedies that have been occurring across our nation. We recognize that these tragedies can be traumatizing. The Counseling Center staff is committed to assisting all of our students who have been directly or vicariously impacted by trauma. In the aftermath of experiencing or witnessing trauma, it is common to experience a range of feelings and emotions, such as shock, fear, sadness, anger, helplessness or guilt. We encourage you to contact our office if you need support with coping and healing. We are here for you.
