Wellness coaching is available to students for whom therapy is not available.

Students will receive an initial consultation session with a Student Support Specialist prior to the start of each term to determine their weekly schedule. This session will not count towards a student's coaching plan hours. Student Support Specialists will develop an organized visual tool with students to build and map out the elements of their coaching plan.

All purchased sessions not used within the selected term will be forfeited.
