May is Mental Health Awareness Month
May is Mental Health Awareness Month—a time dedicated to increasing understanding, reducing stigma, and encouraging individuals to prioritize their emotional well-being. At Counseling Services, we recognize that mental health is just as important as physical health and plays a vital role in academic success, relationships, and overall quality of life. Throughout the month, we encourage our campus community to engage in open conversations, practice self-care, and support one another. Whether you are facing a specific challenge or simply looking to strengthen your well-being, Counseling Services is here to provide a safe, supportive space and the resources you need. You are not alone, and reaching out is a strong and important first step.
