I have worked at Counseling and Consultation Services (CCS) for the past 17 years and this reflects my passion for providing mental health support to NIU students as they pursue their personal and academic goals.
The entire CCS staff and I are committed to meeting the needs of the diverse students at NIU and reducing the stigma connected to reaching out for counseling support. As director of CCS, my number one priority is to coordinate all available resources to provide welcoming, supportive, and beneficial mental health and wellness services to NIU students and the campus community.
