Hi Tumblr.

I work in a university counseling center. I strongly encourage you to give it a try! The counselors working on a college campus have lots of experience dealing with the issues college students are facing. They know that students come into the center with all types of concerns and they work with the students not only to resolve those concerns, but to make sure that the students stay on track academically as well. Like others have said, the first sessions are relationship building sessions - getting to know you, your goals, and what you feel is preventing you from reaching your goals at the present time. There is NO judgement. It's just help. If you don't "click" with the first counselor you see, you can often ask to switch to another counselor in the center with whom you might form a better relationship - so don't give up. Give it a try - you have nothing to lose but a bit of time....and you have A LOT to gain if you find help for your situation!
Thanks for this!
