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.
