Counseling Services

Navarro College offers confidential mental health counseling services to students, along with consultations and referrals to external resources for faculty and staff. Through the Bulldog Mental Wellness Center, licensed counselors provide short-term, solution-focused counseling designed to support skill development and effectively address symptoms or concerns.

Appointments are preferred; however, walk-ins may be accommodated as availability permits, particularly in urgent situations.

Counseling services address a wide range of needs, including relationship and family issues, self-esteem, coping strategies, stress management, and work-life or school-life balance, as well as mental health concerns such as anxiety, panic attacks, depression, attention-related challenges, and bipolar disorder. Drug and alcohol education and support are also available. The Bulldog Mental Wellness Center can also assist students with referrals to outside services for long-term counseling, medication management, and psychological evaluation.

When requested, our counselors offer workshops and trainings opportunities to faculty, staff, and students on a variety of topics that may be tailored to their needs.
