Referrals to Outside Agencies

If you want information and assistance in seeking a referral to a psychologist or psychiatrist off campus, Counseling & Psychological Services' staff are available by phone for consultation and specific recommendations. Call (619) 594-5220 and ask to speak to the next available psychologist on "PHONE CONSULTATION".

When you call, please have available information on counseling or mental health insurance coverage you or your parent(s) may carry. This information is vital in making a good referral for you. If you have no insurance coverage, some therapists use a sliding fee scale based on your ability to pay. The lowest fee under these conditions is typically $30.00 per session.
