CAPS offers a wide range of psychological and counseling services, including individual, relational, and group therapy; consultative services; training; mental health outreach; and well-being programming. Together, these departments work to foster holistic student health through an integrated model of care.

Assignments require the handling of multiple work priorities, flexibility, initiative in identifying opportunities to enhance processes and services, and accountability for one’s own work results and appropriate use of time.
