How to begin
If you have never been to Counseling and Psychological Services, the way to begin is through a new client appointment. Because we would like to know something about you and your concern before the visit, we ask you to arrive 30 minutes early to provide some general information. If there is a short wait before you meet with a counselor, our waiting area is a private and quiet place to study or read our supply of magazines.

How do I schedule a new client appointment?
You may schedule a new client appointment by phone at (734) 487-1118 or in person at 313 Snow Health Center.

What if my problem is urgent?
Let the secretary know so we can assist you in the best possible way.

How long is each appointment?
During the first visit, you will meet with a psychologist or a counselor 45-50 minutes, this does not include 30 minute paperwork time. Subsequent visits are 45-50 minutes.

How much does counseling cost?
As a registered EMU student, there is no additional cost.

Will I continue to see the person I first saw?
One visit is sometimes enough. If ongoing counseling is desired, you may see the counselor you first saw or may be referred to another counselor in the office, depending on your concern or availability. The new counselor will be aware of your concern before you are seen. You will remain with this person for ongoing counseling.

What if I’ve been to Counseling and Psychological Services before?
Depending on the time of year, you may schedule directly with your former counselor or may be asked to schedule a meeting during her/his new client appointment time. The secretary can assist you.
