Open to the Marshall community, including local alumni, the Behavioral Health Center, housed in Gullickson Hall, offers those in need of a listening ear the opportunity to talk to counselors. The Behavioral Health Center’s (BHC) mission is to extend outreach from its Guillickson Hall location to the university community as a whole. They do this by extending the services of clinical counseling to the Marshall community.
The center, located in Gullickson Hall suite GO1, offers a variety of services:
- Crisis intervention;
- Short-term counseling;
- Assistance for students who have been diagnosed with one or more long-term psychiatric conditions;
- Skills development for academic success;
- Support and brief counseling for students recovering from sexual violence and/or interpersonal violence;
- Assessments and referrals to other university resources;
- Mental health consultation, education, and outreach programs for the Marshall community;
- Assistance with Substance Use Disorders.
The Behavioral Health Center works closely with the Marshall community in planning systematic, psycho-educational programing that emphasizes a multicultural and developmental perspective on prevention, wellness and student self-help. The BHC values a community that provides a safe and optimal learning environment for all students. The BHC is also focused on providing leadership in areas of diversity that include the LGBTQ populations, international student populations, first-generation college students and cultural/ethnic minority student populations.
