For verification purposes, we use consultation, documentation, and monthly reports to track services.
Judgement and Decisions:&nbsp;Counselors independently select the appropriate approach to address students’ academic or personal issues. Counselors must have the appropriate skill set to assess for crisis interventions and ability to make clinically appropriate recommendations for treatment. Counselors may consult with other members of the Counseling Services Department. Decisions typically are not reviewed before becoming effective. License-eligible clinicians must adhere to high standards regarding ethics and confidentiality as provided by the state board.
