Case Management Services
The Counseling and Mental Health Center (CMHC) works directly with students to offer support and case management services.
What is Case Management
Case managers work with students by coordinating intervention and support efforts across campus and community systems and routinely address these areas:
- Assessing a student's needs and support systems
- Planning for stressful times and helping clients develop coping mechanisms
- Providing psychoeducation related to mental health, substance use or other well-being concerns with compassion and care
- Provide resources on- or off-campus that support the student's treatment goals
- Coordination of care after a hospital discharge
- Transfer of care and mental health referrals
Mental health case managers work with students to develop treatment plans addressing their current needs. An assessment of the student's strengths, personal needs and presenting concerns will be conducted on your first appointment, which is typically 45-50 minutes long.
The case manager will gather information to best help you identify those needs. Subsequent appointments will likely be shorter approximately 30 minutes and will follow up on your ongoing goals, needs and overall care.
