College of Agriculture and Life Sciences Embedded Counseling

You can meet with the counselor at a location close to your classes — no need to go across campus to the Counseling Center!

Currently enrolled undergraduate and graduate students and eligible postdocs in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS) have access to these specialized counseling services through NC State’s Embedded Counseling program.

Services

Let’s Talk: Drop-In Support

Let’s Talk sessions are opportunities for brief, informal conversations for CALS students with their embedded counselor. Let’s Talk sessions are not therapy, though they can be a first step towards discovering and setting up counseling services.

Common topics in sessions include learning more about counseling services, working through a one-time concern, or learning a coping skill to address a current stressor.

Location

• Patterson Hall’s Academic Programs Suite

Day and Time

• Tuesdays, 2–4 p.m.

Individual Counseling

Schedule one-on-one appointments, based on your availability. 

While Luke is the embedded counselor for CALS, other counselors on staff are available if you have a preference for a counselor as it relates to gender identity, race, and/or ethnicity. 

Your comfort is incredibly important, and we want to make sure we provide the best therapeutic experience. Note your preference on our “Request for Services” form. If you don’t list any preferences, we will work with you to find a counselor who is the best fit.
