We had our last team meeting for the year this week and we shared how proud we were as a team, but also how proud we were to truly work with and support students! As 2025 ends, we want you to know we are thankful for every student that comes through our doors and offers vulnerability and trust with your mental health. We don’t take it for granted and thoroughly enjoy working with you!

Remember, if you’re local during J-term break, we will be open and able to support you. Please give us a call at 515-216-5100.

We will begin accepting appointments for the Spring semester on January 21st.

If you need immediate mental health support during break, please use TimelyCare! You are not alone!
