Concerned about a friend or yourself?
Talk by phone with a therapist today.

If you are considering counseling services for yourself or if you are concerned about a friend, our therapists want to talk directly with you by phone for a brief 10-15 minute consultation. This conversation will allow the therapist to hear your concerns and help identify the best way for you to get the help you need.

Please phone our office at (619) 594-5220 between the hours of 8:30 am and 4 pm and ask for a consultation with one of our therapists.

Please remember that if at any time you or a friend is struggling with a psychological emergency, a counselor will be made available to speak with you today.

For example, if you or a friend are:

  • Grieving the recent death of a family member or friend
  • The survivor of a rape or physical assault
  • Considering harming yourself or someone else

Inform the receptionist that your situation is urgent and he/she will see that you speak with a counselor today.

We also encourage students to use San Diego’s free 24-hour counseling access line at 1-800-479-3339. The well-trained professional staff are not only available 24 hours a day for immediate assistance regarding a psychological emergency, but are also very skilled in locating the additional counseling resources in our San Diego community that are available to you.
