We offer high-quality, evidence-based mental health care to support UW’s diverse student body at two locations—the Counseling Center and Hall Health. Both locations offer a safe and inclusive environment to explore the challenges of life and learning through a range of services from individual counseling, groups, workshops and referrals off-campus.

You can call us for any concern, large or small. There is no wrong reason to reach out or make an appointment. Wherever you chose to start, we will make sure you get connected with the most appropriate treatment. We encourage you to consult with us even if you’re not quite sure what you’re looking for or whether you “need” help.

Mental Health Services at Hall Health

All UW students can seek mental health services at Hall Health. The first step is a brief support visit that is free—paid for by the Services & Activities Fee. Follow-up visits are billed to your insurance.

To schedule a brief support visit, call 206.543.5030 up to 48-hours in advance of when you would like to be seen. This is a 20-minute session with a counselor to discuss your concerns and explore treatment options.

Counseling Center

The Counseling Center offers short-term mental health services at no charge to currently enrolled, degree-seeking UW students. To schedule an intake, call 206.543.1240 when we open on the day before you would like to come in. This initial appointment is an opportunity to discuss your concerns and develop a treatment plan with a counselor.
