The Siena University Counseling Center is committed to providing quality care to students. In order to assure students receive adequate care, for a variety of reasons, we are unable to provide ongoing counseling services to graduate students who are non residential.
We encourage graduate students in need of counseling services to explore the many community based resources available. We know that this can sometimes feel overwhelming. Therefore, we have created some resources to assist students in the self-referral process.
