Faculty, staff, students and parents sometimes consult with Counseling Services regarding concerns for a specific student, friend, or son/daughter.   Individuals are encouraged to contact Counseling Services to refer a student for which there is concern, however any client information is confidential.  Except in situations where there is danger present (to the individual or someone else), the decision to accept or reject a referral is up to the individual.  Counseling Services can also serve as a liaison with other local mental health service providers when needed.  Call (419) 434-4526 for more information. 

When to refer to Counseling Services

• When you don’t feel qualified to handle the problem
• When the person is reluctant to discuss the problem with you
• When you feel you are overwhelmed and stressed yourself
