Counseling Services

Scheduling an Appointment

To schedule an appointment with a licensed therapist at the Walter Young Center, email wyc@carrollu.edu (or call the WYC front desk at 262-524-7335). You can provide your name and let them know you'd like to schedule an appointment with a counselor. If you have preferred times, or a therapist you would prefer to work with, you can provide this information in your email as well. If the matter is urgent (you are having safety concerns), please let the front desk staff know this.

What We Do

University life can be exciting, although some experiences may be difficult to handle. Licensed, professional therapists at the Walter Young Center are available to help students sort through these challenges. The service is free for all Carroll students and is completely confidential.

Walter Young Center counselors are currently available for telehealth (video) or in-person counseling services. To schedule a session with a licensed professional counselor, e-mail us at wyc@carrollu.edu or call 262-524-7335.

  • Please note: due to licensure restrictions we are not able to work with students via telehealth who are studying remotely in Illinois. However, we are happy to consult with students and assist in connecting to mental health resources in their area.
