CONSULTATIONS
Faculty and Staff of TCU can call our Center (during regular business hours) and speak with the On-Call Counselor to discuss any concerns about a student. We can provide advice on how to approach a student in need, discuss any appropriate plans of action, and give information about possible referrals.
Due to laws protecting privacy, we can not disclose whether or not a student is a client of ours without a signed release of information. In addition, we do not have the authority to mandate students to seek our services.
If you are interested in speaking with a counselor, please call our office at 817-257-7863. If there is an emergency after hours, please call the Campus police at 817-257-7777 or dial 911.
FACULTY/STAFF TRAINING
CTMH has partnered with the Office of Campus Life to create a Faculty and Staff Training: "Helping Students in Distress." This training is designed to teach ways to recognize student distress, provide information about policies and resources for assisting students, and to discuss effective skills for approaching a student in need.
If you are interested in more information or to schedule a training for your department, please contact Dr. Eric Wood at 817-257-7863 or at e.c.wood@tcu.edu.
If you are interested in attending an upcoming Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST), please contact Dr. Elizabeth Koshy at 817-257-7863 or at e.m.koshy@tcu.edu
OUTREACH SERVICES
Our staff also provides classroom presentations and organized activities (i.e. bio-feedback demonstrations) regarding issues common to college students. If you are interested in having our staff present to your class, please contact Dr. Eric Wood at 817-257-7863 or at e.c.wood@tcu.edu.
