May is Mental Health Awareness Month. With an on-going pandemic, global conflict, and then the rigors of everyday life, the past few years have been a lot.

Be Well at Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ provides students with a 24/7, 365 free mental health support line with licensed counselors as well as free telehealth or off campus face-to-face counseling sessions.

Students are able to receive services regardless of their location– in-state or internationally.

Health insurance is not required for services.

To access the free 24/7 mental health support line, call 833-434-1217. Speak with a counselor or make an appointment.

If you have questions, contact Karen Mosley-Lyon at mosleylyonk@durhamtech.edu.

Are you a Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ student who wants to speak to a licensed mental health professional? Counseling Services is here for you during regular campus hours.

Are you a Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½ÊÓƵ employee who wants to speak with a licensed mental health professional? Remember that you have access to the Employee Assistance Program. It's free and confidential. 

If you're struggling right now or know someone who is, sometimes it's hard to know how to feel better. While we can't fix everything immediately for ourselves or others, we can look for help ourselves or find ways to support others.

If you're really struggling, it's important to reach out and ask for help. You are important. You matter. You deserve to get help.
