Get Started


Make an Appointment

Check out the “Our Services” tab to consider where you might start with our Center based on your current needs.

To schedule an appointment, please call 252-328-6661 anytime during normal business hours (Monday – Friday 8a.m. – 5p.m.). Please have your Banner ID ready when calling. It is important to let the front office assistants know if you are in high distress so we can best accommodate your needs.

Please note: CCSD will stop taking calls to schedule new treatment appointments at 4:00pm each day.

If you are 15 or more minutes late to your appointment, you will be asked to reschedule. There is a $25 fee assessed on your tuition bill as a “Student Health Services fee” for any missed appointments where you do not cancel or reschedule.

If you want counseling but decide to not use CCSD, we offer Uwill as an alternative. Click here for more information and to get started.


Eligibility for Services

Our services are available at no additional cost to enrolled students who have paid the student health service fee. For questions about eligibility, please call 252-328-6661.


Is CCSD right for me?

We provide individual counseling within a short-term therapeutic model, with most students attending 4-5 sessions. Short-term counseling can be beneficial to students experiencing challenges in the following areas:

  • Personal: stress, anxiety, depression, anger, loneliness, grief, guilt, self-esteem, emotion regulation, substance use, impulse control, effects of trauma, body image
  • Relational: interpersonal communication, romantic relationship difficulties, sexual concerns, roommate problems, family concerns, interpersonal violence, harassment, stalking
  • Developmental: identity, adjustment to college/life transitions, concerns from childhood and/or adolescence
  • Academic: performance anxiety, perfectionism, underachievement, low motivation

Learn more about what we offer through exploring the “Our Services” tab. If you determine that we might be a good resource for you, you can be scheduled for an initial appointment with one of our counselors. From this appointment, you and the counselor will decide what services are best for you. Options are based on individual needs; therefore, you may be provided services at CCSD, referred to other campus offices or clinics, or referred to off-campus providers. We will assist you in finding appropriate support for your situation.

If you are unsure if our services are right for you, we encourage you to come in and meet with a same-day screening counselor to help you determine what options are available.
