Here to help

The Counseling Office provides professional counseling for students of the college to help them develop to their full potential. Counselors strive to support the academic, career and personal development of all students. Services are provided by professionally trained counselors who believe education is a developmental process integrating educational, personal and social development.

Counseling takes the form of individual personal counseling, group counseling, crisis intervention and/or referral.

The outcome of counseling is movement toward understanding thoughts and feelings, interests and aspirations, increased autonomy, relating meaningfully with others and integrating personal and social responsibilities.

For more information, contact 518-743-2278, or email us at counseling@sunyacc.edu.

In a crisis, please indicate the immediacy of an issue. If students are uncertain about counseling, introductory appointments may help them decide. The decision to seek counseling is always up to the individual.

ProtoCall

The SUNY Adirondack Counseling Division partners with ProtoCall to provide after-hours crisis services for our students. ProtoCall is a crisis hotline staffed by trained staff to provide crisis intervention and referral services whenever we are closed, including 24 hours on the weekends and holidays. Students may call ProtoCall for reasons ranging from anxiety or relationship distress to suicidal ideation or other serious mental health issues.

Callers should be aware that ProtoCall is an off-site provider for mental health support. Calls made after hours are logged routinely and while information is kept private, we can not guarantee that information will be held confidentially.  

To reach ProtoCall after hours, dial 518-743-2278. 

Interested in connecting with off-campus Mental Health Services? Thriving Campus is a searchable database of community providers. Students can filter in a variety of ways including by location in New York state, therapy approach, insurance, race of the clinician, language preference and gender of the clinician. 

Questions? Contact one of the counselors at counseling@sunyacc.edu for assistance.
