    University Counseling Services (UCS) is committed to helping you achieve maximum benefit from your experiences at Truman. This may include helping you perform better academically, to manage your emotions, to be more effective in your relationships with others or to resolve past hurts. Our desire is to help you think and function more effectively and to have control over your life.

    For most students, the college years represent unique challenges. It is a time of significant personal growth and decision-making regarding one's values, interpersonal relationships, career and other life goals, all within a stressful academic environment. Even the most successful student may experience considerable difficulty with these challenges.

    Problems often encountered by students include difficulties with academics, interpersonal relationships and sexuality, family problems, self-identity issues, feelings of loneliness, low self-esteem, depression or anxiety.

    UCS is designed to complement Truman's academic mission by assisting students' personal and educational development through a variety of psychological services. The goal of these efforts is to help students develop effective problem-solving and decision-making capabilities in order to make satisfying life choices, and maximize their capacity for continued emotional growth.

    UCS provides group, short-term individual, and relationship counseling, as well as consultation and referral services at no additional cost to all Truman State University students.

    Should you need to utilize our services, please feel free to call or come by our office to set up an initial appointment.
