Online Counseling
Welcome to Online Counseling!
Online Counseling is offering easy access to students who are unable to meet with a counselor in a traditional face-to-face session. Please be prepared for the session as you would for an in-person session on campus. As you are aware, web-based counseling is new to many and this guide will give you an overview of appropriate etiquette when interacting in this new environment.

Preparing for the Live session
Ask yourself if you would appear the same way if you are meeting with a counselor in person.
We recommend the following:
Proper attire
Proper lighting in the room
No background noise
No interruptions—Do not answer phone calls, texts or web surfing during the session. Give full attention to the counselor.
Be respectful when communicating with your counselor
