Counseling Center

Hello Berry community! For those of you who are joining us for the first time—Welcome! For those of you who are starting another year here—Welcome back! The Counseling Center would like to wish you a smooth transition to the Fall 2025 semester and offer some reminders about our services. We are located in the Ladd Center, and you know you’ve found our front office when you see LOTS of cat memorabilia. We are open from 8am – 5pm Monday – Friday, and can be reached at (706) 236 – 2259. We offer individual counseling services, same day sessions (30 minute meetings that can only be reserved the day of), rotating therapy groups, and referrals to off-campus resources (all free to students).

Whether you’re coming back for another semester or it’s your first few weeks here, college life is full of changes, opportunities, explorations, and challenges. Please know we are here to support you in whatever way you may need; there is no issue too small to be brought within our walls. As you adjust to this Fall semester, please do not forget that while you ARE a student, you are also a human being who needs time to decompress, have fun, and take care of yourself. Speaking of, if you’re reading this right now, drink some water, take a 10-minute walk around the building you’re in, or call a friend and chat about the show you both love—Whatever it is, please make sure to prioritize self-care as things get rockin’ and rollin’. We look forward to another great year!
