Personal Counseling

There may be times during your college experience that you could benefit from talking with someone. We offer free, confidential counseling services to enrolled students based in New York State. Our licensed professionals help students through all different types of difficulties, from everyday stressors to serious mental health concerns. Some common reasons students contact Counseling Services are anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, adjusting to college life, and balancing school and other responsibilities.

Consultation and Referrals

Sometimes students know they could use some help but aren’t sure where to go. Our counselors also offer consultations on accessing a wide variety of mental health resources tailored to your situation, both locally and for students who live outside of New York State. A consultation with one of our counselors can also be helpful if you’re worried about a friend or roommate and are not sure how best to help them.

Outreach and Wellness

We offer exciting programs throughout the year to support your overall health and wellness. In past years this has included workshops and events related to Safety in NYC, Self-Defense, Yoga, Nutrition, Sexual Assault Awareness, among others. Look out for announcements throughout the year! LIM College does not have a medical facility on campus, however, to address the health needs of our NYC based students, we have partnered with Northwell Health – GoHealth Urgent Care to give you priority access to medical care at locations throughout NYC. Visit gohealthuc.com/dte/northwell/lim for more information.

Medical Withdrawals

Students who are concerned that medical or mental health difficulties are preventing their successful study at LIM College are strongly encouraged to reach out to our office to determine if a medical withdrawal is necessary.

Immunization and Covid Vaccination Record Management

Required immunization documents must be submitted to Counseling Services. New York State Public Health laws require all college students enrolled in on campus classes equivalent to provide written proof of MMR immunization and a Meningitis response. Additionally, the College is requiring proof of full Covid-19 vaccination for all students attending classes on campus. Access forms, instructions for submitting your records, and additional immunization information.
