Counseling Center

The Counseling Center enhances the mission of Taylor University by supporting students’ mental health as they navigate academic, personal, and spiritual growth.

The goal of each of our clinicians is to be culturally competent, trauma-informed and spiritually sensitive as we engage with students. The Counseling Center provides care through intervention, prevention, and crisis intervention.

  • Group Counseling on different topics on an “as needed” or “as requested” basis.
