Counseling Center Staff recommend that current and prospective students in need of ongoing, long-term mental health support (including psychiatric medications) familiarize themselves with their insurance benefits, particularly with regards to authorization of ongoing mental health services in the state of Maryland.
Interested students may find off-campus providers using The Shrink Space for customizable searches of and to community mental health providers.
