Let's Talk: Drop-in Counseling
Let’s Talk is a program that connects UW students both virtually and in person with support from experienced mental health counselors from the Counseling Center without an appointment. Let’s Talk offers informal consultation – it is not a substitute for regular therapy, counseling or psychiatric care.
Mental health counselors hold drop-in hours via videoconference and in-person to provide insight, solutions and information about other resources. Let’s Talk drop-in visits are free, and confidential and no appointment necessary. We also have dedicated Let’s Talk times if you are needing assistance finding an off-campus provider or if you are a survivor or an international student looking for support.
