College Consultation - Our Services
Our Services
The College Mental Health Program through UMASS is designed to fit the needs of the college/university counseling centers and the students they serve. Our model consists of having one of our psychiatrists embedded within the college counseling center so that students can receive care in a comfortable setting without the need to leave campus. The psychiatrist partners with the counseling center to triage cases to the appropriate resource and provide expert consultation. Services may include:
- Psychiatric consultation with ongoing treatment
- Initial consultation and treatment plan development with referral for appropriate services
- Indirect clinical case consultation to counseling center directors and staff
- Clinical liaison and care coordination between other medical center departments including emergency room, inpatient psychiatric care, addiction, or transgender clinics
- Psychoeducation to students and their families (with consent)
- Policy consultation
- Consultation in management of emergent situations on campus
- Educational activities including lectures, seminars, or tutorials
