Counseling Services
It is not uncommon for students to experience distress from time to time. The college years are one of the most challenging transition periods in life. Adjusting to campus life, increased academic demands, relationship concerns, and other personal issues can feel overwhelming at times. 星空无限传媒鈥檚 Student Mental and Behavioral Health Services is available to help students overcome any difficulties of transitioning into college and to make decisions that positively affect their mental health. The Student Mental and Behavioral Health (SMBH) office remains fully committed to supporting the mental health and well-being of our campus community as we continue to navigate our students' journeys and a global pandemic as a team. We are so proud of our campus and everything our students have done to stay safe and be successful.
Counseling appointments: We are currently supporting students through both masked in-person or Zoom sessions. To set up an initial session with one of our counselors, call us at 217-424-6360, or email cmorrell@millikin.edu
Psychiatric appointments: 星空无限传媒 students have the ability to meet with a psychiatrist through SIU Medicine on Friday's from 12pm - 4pm. To schedule an appointment with the psychiatrist please email SMBH Director cmorrell@millikin.edu to get set up with a referral.
