Psychological Services at 小黄片视频 is now Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS)

Psychological Services at 小黄片视频 is enhancing its mental health services, and, in the process, is changing its name to better reflect its scope of practice.

Unveiling Counseling and Psychological Services 鈥 or CAPS 鈥 comes at a time when, over the summer, the Division of Student Affairs underwent a reorganization process. According to the Director, Counseling and Psychological Services, Dr. Pamela Farer-Singleton, it signaled the right time to make a change. 鈥淲ith Psychological Services reporting to [Dean of Students] Dr. Talea Drummer-Ferrell, this was a good time and opportunity to establish a new identity and increase visibility for our office,鈥 she said.

Farer-Singleton also pointed to the fact that mental health is now more important than ever, which factored into the name change. 鈥淚n an effort to enhance mental health services [on campus], it is crucial that the department be visible, discernible and accessible to the university community,鈥 she said. Drummer-Ferrell agreed. 鈥淭he title 鈥楶sychological Services鈥 is hard to distinguish from an academic department and does not fully convey the resources provided by our clinicians,鈥 she said. 鈥淏y adding counseling to the title, it depicts a more accurate picture of the services and helps as people search for resources.鈥

The updated department name will also signal the beginning of a partnership with IMPACT Student Assistance Program, who will assist CAPS in an expanded capacity by providing additional counseling support to students, including an after hours line. 鈥淲e will now be able to provide teleservice support to our out-of-state students and other students in an effort to minimize wait lists,鈥 said Drummer-Ferrell. 鈥淭his is an exciting initiative to provide this service, and I know it will have a positive impact on our students, especially during such a critical time!鈥
