Our Philosophy
Understanding our own personal stories is vital to living life well. Our stories are shaped by life events, as well as what is occurring inside of us. Sometimes, these experiences limit our healthy development. Overcoming these experiences through healing and growth cannot happen in isolation. Living in a community provides opportunities to practice vulnerability and to create intimate, transformative connections
Our Mission
The Center for Student Counseling and Wellness strives to equip students with the tools they need to learn and practice essential skills to experience cognitive, behavioral, social, and emotional well-being.
Gordon College counseling

Supports our campus community by providing education and mental health resources that both promote and prioritize wellness.
CSCW Staff
Here to support you
Each of our counselors is a professional, licensed clinician or is supervised by a licensed clinician and has extensive experience in the field of mental health. We consider it an honor and privilege to come alongside students as they navigate the challenging years of higher education. Our primary goal is to provide a safe and objective place where students can freely discuss issues or problems without concern of any disciplinary response or of information being shared with anyone else.
Gordon College Counseling Stepped Care Model
Stepped Care is a system of delivering and monitoring mental health treatment so the most effective, yet least resource-intensive treatment, is delivered first. Students seeking wellness services will move up and down the care model depending on their goals, presenting symptoms and the level of care needed. Step 1 is considered lower intensity, while Step 7 represents the most acute care. Intervention intensity may be stepped up or down according to their needs.
