We currently provide care through several different platforms:
- Secure video visits with a Counseling Center or Hall Health therapist for individual therapy, group counseling and crisis counseling. Psychiatric care is also available at Hall Health.
- After meeting with a therapist by video for an initial visit, support via secure text message may be available. We are partnering with a company called Trusst to offer this to students.
- Drop-in support from a counselor via Let’s Talk.
- Online workshops are available to enhance your wellbeing and self-care.
Video visits with a therapist
Individual counseling via video is available to students through the Counseling Center and Hall Health.
There is no cost associated with the initial visit, during which time we will talk with you about treatment options, including cost and insurance.
Text with your therapist
Depending on your needs, you may also be able to connect with your therapist for support through a texting app called Trusst. You will need to schedule a video visit first to discuss this option.

Career support
The Counseling Center offers brief psychologically and culturally-informed individual career counseling to currently registered UW Seattle matriculated students. During your visit, you and your counselor will explore a range of subjects that will help you gain greater self-awareness or clarity about your academic and career goals. As a result, you’ll be better able to decide on potential majors and careers. Some of the areas your counselor may discuss with you include:
- Cultural/family beliefs and values that have impacted your education and career prospects
- Family expectations of what you should study or which careers you should consider
- Your preferences for lifestyle, geographical location, preferred work environments, family needs, etc.
- Your interests, motives, skills and values
