Attending Loyola
University New Orleans is a very challenging and important
endeavor. You are faced with a large number of decisions and possibilities
affecting your personal, social, and academic choices; the challenge
of dealing with these decisions can be, at once, both exciting and anxiety
producing. At different points in each of our lives, we may turn to
others for guidance and support.
The University Counseling Center
exists to assist you in meeting the varied challenges of community life
at Loyola.
Confidentiality is the cornerstone of the counseling process because it is sometimes difficult or awkward to share personal feelings or sensitive issues with another person. The Counseling Center eases the process by ensuring that whatever is shared during a counseling session remains confidential.
Counseling records are independent of all university records, and information is released only with the express written consent of the student. The mere fact that a student may seek counseling is also confidential. Exceptions to confidentiality are extremely rare, e.g., a life may be in danger.
Services provided by the center are free to all Loyola students. The center staff is also available to meet with faculty and staff for consultation and referral information.
Appointments may be made with the administrative assistant in the University Counseling Center in Room 208 of the Danna Student Center or by calling 865-3835.
