The College physician is available from 8:30am to 9:30am each weekday morning.  The physician can treat any complaint that you would see your regular family physician for.  Students do not need an appointment to see the physician, walk-ins are welcomed.  Students need to be in the health center by 9am or earlier to see the college physician during normally scheduled hours.
Services and medications provided by the health center are always free to the students.  The health centered is funded by your tuition money so please utilize the services when needed.  Students should contact the health center either by phone or in person as soon as illness or injury occurs. By doing this, the student may be able to avoid a more serious condition.
If you receive allergy shots, we can give those in the health center.  Please call us at extension 217 for information regarding times and restrictions. If the student lives in the residence halls and is too ill to eat in the dining room, they may obtain a sick tray by contacting their Resident Director.

Mental Health Counseling Services

Confidential mental health counseling services are provided free of charge to current students in the Student Health Center.  A State Independently Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (PCC) will provide a diagnostic assessment, treatment plan, and subsequent therapy sessions to assist students with a wide variety of wellness and mental health concerns.  No problem is too large or small.  Time management, stress, relationship issues, substance use/abuse/dependence, depression, anxiety, GLBT issues, ADHD and bipolar disorder are some of the concerns often addressed through the Campus Counseling Services.  There is no specific limit to the number of sessions a student may receive through this free benefit but it should be noted that students whose needs require specialized or very long term care may be referred to seek services through their insurance providers.

Please note that the counseling record of the student does not go into the student’s academic record and confidentiality of counseling services is strictly upheld.

To schedule an appointment, please contact Mary Lynn Barber, Director of Counseling Services, at ext. 272 or by e-mail at marylynn_barber@wilmington.edu
