Counseling Center

Widener University offers several resources and services to help students achieve academic success.  The purpose of the counseling center is to provide Widener University students access to counseling, psychotherapy, education, assessment, and psychiatric services. We support the quality of campus life via collaboration and consultation with academic, residential, and service programs of the University.

Our goal is to help students achieve greater self-awareness and understanding, improve relationships with family, friends, co-workers, and significant others, and attain independence and self-reliance.
