Welcome!
The Counseling and Career Development Center at Georgia Southern
University is where students can go to participate in programs and
receive services designed to help them handle day-to-day challenges and
encourage their personal growth and development. We complement the
mission of the University by providing the personal assistance that
students need in a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere.
The Counseling Center is staffed by doctoral-level psychologists and
master's-level counselors who provide services on an individual and group
basis at no additional cost to those enrolled as full-time, matriculated
students at Georgia Southern.
The Counseling Center is located on Forest Drive between Health Services
and the Forest Drive Classroom building. Our normal business hours are
Monday - Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. We are closed on all
official University holidays.
Counseling sessions are scheduled by appointment. To make an
appointment, you may visit the Counseling Center in person, or call
us at 912-478-5541. Please be aware that, with the new
traffic changes at GSU for 2010, parking for the Counseling Center is
now located
by the Performing Arts Center parking lot, which is accessible via
Plant Drive. There are visible signs indicating the location of the
new parking lot.

Along with individual counseling services, we offer a

powerful experience, and can be a primary source of change or supplemental
to individual therapy. For more information about our groups
this semester, check out our Groups page.
