Services
We strive to remain somewhat balanced in our approach to providing services to the community. We provide general services in:
Individual Counseling
We provide individual counseling to the community at low or no cost at Shippen Hall in suite 110. Call Growing Edges to schedule an appointment.
Family, Couples, and Group Counseling
We facilitate group counseling at Shippen Hall in our group room, 110G.
We provide couples and family counseling free of charge at Shippensburg University. On campus, group sessions are co-facilitated by counseling students and faculty.
Grief/Loss Support Groups
In our Spiritual Wellness facility here on Shippensburg University campus, we facilitate support groups for children, adolescents and adults who are grieving a significant loss. The groups are co-facilitated by students in Dr. Shirley Hess's Grief and Loss course and primarily meet in the evening. This project is titled "Drew's Hope" and is a result of our partnership with the Drew Michael Taylor Foundation.
Referrals

After we receive the referral form, a student counselor will be in contact with the referred individual(s) to set up an appointment.
