Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS)

Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) provides student-focused mental health services to currently enrolled U-M undergraduate and graduate students.

 

Together, with a diverse CAPS staff who represent multiple social identities including, but not limited to, racial/ethnic, country of origin, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, languages spoken, and age, we can provide consultation, brief individual, couples and group therapy, lunch series, support groups, clinical workshops, urgent/crisis interventions, and assistance with referrals.

 

Through campus-wide partnerships, CAPS can also help students connect with other U-M resources.

 

In order to discuss how to best tailor services to address individual needs, students are encouraged to come to the CAPS office the Michigan Union (Suite 4079) or to one of our 13 Embedded sites and schedule an Initial Consultation with a staff member.
