Mental Health at Chico State
Counseling Center Virtual Services
During Fall 2020, the WellCat Counseling Center will be providing services to new and returning students. We offer individual and group counseling via Zoom and phone for tele-mental health assistance to any Chico State student.
If you are in crisis and need to speak to a counselor immediately please call 530-898-6345 and follow the phone prompts (press 2) and you will be connected to a crisis counselor at that time.
We have a crisis counselor available to you 24/7 for crisis services.
If you would like to schedule a new or returning appointment, or are interested in group therapy please call 530-898-6345 and leave a message if we are not available to take your call. Please leave your name, phone number, and student ID number and one of our team members at WCCC will return your call. Wishing you all a safe and happy Fall 2020 semester!
