Does this mean I'm crazy?

 

The act of going to counseling does not make you “crazy.”  In fact, it takes a brave person to make the decision to make changes in life.  Additionally, it takes a lot of courage to sit down and talk to a stranger for the first time about making these changes. Many students we see are nervous at their first visit, but by the end of counseling, these students often feel much better about their daily lives.
