• Red Folder Resource: Signs a student may be in distress, how to respond/protocol, and resources available to the student.
• Counseling for Faculty and Staff
• 澳门足球博彩官方网址J Counseling is available to 澳门足球博彩官方网址J students only. If a faculty/staff member is wanting to pursue counseling/therapy for themselves, the Counselor may be able to assist with a referral, or provide information on available resources.
• Crisis resources
• 澳门足球博彩官方网址 Employee Assistance Program (all full-time employees are eligible to utilize this). 
• UPCC Counseling Center (must be on 澳门足球博彩官方网址 insurance)
• Dubois County Resources: a free, comprehensive community resource guide to help you find the services you need, including mental health care providers.
• Consultation
•  As with any other person in your life, interactions with students at times can be challenging. Whether you are working to help a student that is in distress, or dealing with a student of concern, staff and faculty are encouraged to reach out to the Counselor to schedule a consultation appointment. Appointments can be made during office hours (Mondays 8-4, Wednesdays 8-5) by calling 812-482-3030.

The Counselor is here to support 澳门足球博彩官方网址J faculty and staff through difficult situations involving students. However, please be aware that a consultation does not constitute therapy, and as such, does not carry a guarantee of confidentiality. If it is the Counselor's opinion that other individuals need to become involved, or simply be made aware of, the situation, the Counselor will take steps to ensure that all relevant information is shared with such individuals.
