COUNSELING OFFICE

Northeastern's Counseling Office supports the University's primary academic mission by providing both psychological and career assistance to members of the University community. As students clarify their career goals and develop healthy ways of responding to the stresses and problems in their lives, they are better able to achieve their academic and personal goals. In this way, responsive and high quality counseling services enable students to develop to their full potential and achieve success.

Counseling services are confidential and free of charge to all current Northeastern students. Faculty and staff are also eligible for some limited services.
