Counseling Center Extends Special ‘Let’s Talk’ Invitation

Primary tabs

The Counseling Center is continuing its work to provide easy access to informal consultations with counselors for all Georgia Tech students through the “Let’s Talk” program. During these difficult times, the Center would like to extend a particular invitation to Black and African American students and other communities who feel the impact of current events and want to be listened to, heard, and supported. 

By participating in a “Let’s Talk” session, students will have access to an informal, friendly, supportive, and confidential consultation with a Georgia Tech counselor who values their need to be heard. Counselors will hold virtual walk-in hours throughout the week. Students are not required to fill out any clinical paperwork or participate in a formal intake process. 

To sign up for an individual time that fits your schedule, please email one of the counselors below for the day and time you prefer. The counselor will send you a confidential BlueJeans link to protect your privacy.

To access a counselor after hours and on weekends, please call the main Counseling Center number at 404.894.2575 and follow the prompts. To initiate formal counseling services, please contact Georgia Tech’s Center for Assessment, Referral, and Education (CARE) at 404.894.3498.
