Utilizing Counseling Services
 

Counseling Services at NYFA provides short-term (typically eight sessions), solution-focused therapy to eligible students. Expect to fill out intake forms and meet with a therapist for an assessment, which is when we learn about who you are and what you're experiencing. From there, you and your therapist can talk about your goals and decide how often you'd like to meet.  Students whose needs fall outside of the scope of practice will be referred to community resources so that needs can be appropriately met. Referrals can be made at the initial intake/consultation as well as when a student is engaged in therapy on campus and the need is assessed through work with a campus therapist. If you have any questions, please reach out by email or stop by our offices (R401 and R402).
