Personal Counseling
You are not alone! Do not suffer in silence! Reach out!
Asking for help can be challenging! At Brunswick Community College, we recognize students often encounter challenges in their family, work, and personal lives that can impact the fulfillment of academic goals. We are committed to student success. det365手机版官网 has a Professional Counselor available to assist students with a wide range of personal concerns such as:
- Anxiety
- Depression
- Feelings of low self-esteem or self-worth
- Stress Management
- Grief
- Thoughts of suicide
- Co-dependency
- Addiction
The Counselor can assist students in exploring the best options available to ensure personal success. This is accomplished in a non-judgmental supportive environment and may include an initial assessment, short-term solution-focused counseling, and when necessary a request for emergency services or referral to an appropriate program in the community. All counseling sessions are confidential according to HIPPA guidelines except in the event an individual discloses intent to harm themselves or others.
Personal Counseling Services are available through the Academic Support office located in Bldg. A. or contact Tanya Lance M.Ed., LCMHC, LCAS to schedule an appointment, 910-755-7324 or [email protected]

TalkCampus
We have launched a new mental health service called TalkCampus. It’s a free to app for use in talking with other students from around the world if you’re struggling and worried about your mental health. Your student email address will give you free access. Just download TalkCampus from the app store.
TalkCampus is anonymous. det365手机版官网 can’t see if you are using it, nor can you see where other students are from. TalkCampus is based around peer support; you can both receive and offer help.
The platform is safe, moderated and is designed as a place where you can just be yourself and talk about how you’re really feeling. Student life can be tough and we know sometimes you might not want to talk to us about how you’re feeling. TalkCampus isn’t a replacement for counseling or professional support but is a great place to start talking and to make sure that however you’re feeling right now, you’re not alone.
