The Mission Of The Counseling Center

The Notre Dame College Counseling Center is committed in providing excellence in psychotherapeutic services to promote student safety, personal growth and academic success. The Counseling Center provides an open and safe environment to encourage self-awareness, personal responsibility and healthy interpersonal relationships within a diverse and dynamic campus community. The Counseling Center is involved through collaborative efforts throughout the campus community in creating a vital and healthy campus learning environment.

Confidentiality

Counselors are ethically committed to confidentiality and federal/state laws require it. This means that even your attendance in counseling is kept private and confidential. The law states that there are four exceptions to this general rule: a) you may request (by means of a signed release) that your counselor may reveal information to other individuals or agencies of your choice; b) in instances where there is imminent danger of serious harm to yourself or others, a counselor may reveal that information to prevent harm; c) in cases involving physical and/or sexual abuse of children or endangered adults, the counselor must report such abuse; and d) where requested by subpoena or mandated by court order or state/federal law.
