Mission

The purpose of the Counseling Center is to contribute to the intellectual, emotional, and relational health and development of students.

Our Values

The Counseling Center is open year-round, including Fall and Spring semesters, WinTerm and Summer Session. We are closed on designated holidays as indicated on the UW-Stout annual calendar, and on selected days during breaks and summer to accommodate staff vacations.

The counseling center is interested in maintaining a web site that is useful to our campus community. This site and related resources are not intended to substitute for help from a qualified counselor, nor does this web site provide online counseling.

*Email sent to the Counseling Center will be read by office staff during regular office hours and forwarded, if appropriate, to members of our counseling staff. Please do not send information of an urgent or confidential nature to this address, as response times will vary and we cannot guarantee email privacy.
