Counseling and Health
Counseling Services
Counseling Services provides confidential, short-term services for Gettysburg students who are on campus while classes are in session. Services include individual and
group counseling, psychiatry for newly emerging conditions, consultation, and psycho- education. Appointments may be scheduled by phone or in person.
Students, or anyone with a Gettysburg College email address, can also access online self-help resources via TAO (Therapist Assisted Online). A link is available on the Counseling Services website.
Students seek counseling for a variety of reasons, including homesickness, relationship issues, depression, anxiety, eating problems, and identity issues. Counseling Services asks that students (rather than parents) call to set up appointments.
Counseling Services cannot share information with parents or others without students’ consent; however, the staff welcomes calls from parents who want to share information about their students or consult about available services on and off campus.
Visit the Counseling Services web pages for further information designed especially for parents and families.
