Walter Young Center Counseling Services

University life can be exciting, although some experiences may be difficult to handle. The professional therapists at the Walter Young Counseling Center are available to help students sort through these challenges. Services are available to help students gain insight and learn healthier ways of coping with the stress of college life. All services are free for currently enrolled Carroll students and completely confidential.

At the Walter Young Counseling Center, we are proud to provide inclusive mental health services and programs to the Carroll community and to support Carroll University's efforts toward equity, justice, and liberation. We recognize that every individual comes to counseling with a different history and a lifetime of unique experiences, and we seek to honor that by creating a treatment plan that is individualized for each student. We are dedicated to providing culturally sensitive counseling services to the students at Carroll University, and to creating a safe space where all students feel welcome and accepted.

Confidentiality

Counseling records are kept separate from academic, disciplinary and medical records to ensure each student’s privacy and confidentiality.
