Important COVID-19 Updates
The safety and wellness of our students is the primary concern at the Center for Student Wellness and Counseling Services (CSWCS).
Considering recent university restrictions regarding COVID-19, the CSWCS office is currently closed, until further notice, for any face-to-face counseling. Please continue to monitor this page and/or your NEOMED email for more information from our Center regarding counseling options.
It is natural for many of us to experience mixed feelings of anxiety during the world’s response to COVID-19. Demonstrating care, love, support, social connection, and having a sense of belonging are the elements for healing when coping with mixed feelings, pain and grief. Now is a time for us to not only contemplate our feelings, but also to seek out healing for ourselves and others.
While we continue to receive continual updates on COVID-19, we wanted to provide you with several resources that can be helpful in addressing your well-being during a time of uncertainty.
