Students face many trials in college and may benefit from addressing those trials with a skilled therapist in counseling. The Student Counseling Center staff is committed to providing an ethical and professional service to the JBU community within a Biblical worldview.
Our office provides counseling services during the fall and spring semesters. Most students are served on an individual basis and typically meet weekly for a 45-50 minute session. Some individuals need only a few sessions to work through their personal concerns. Some need more time. The number of sessions is based on the student's needs and particular circumstances.
In the event a student's concern requires intensive therapeutic or medical care beyond the scope of the counseling center or health services, our office will assist students with referrals to professional off-campus support services.
Traditional undergraduate students are not charged for sessions 1-8 per academic year (August - May). If a student continues working in individual counseling after the 8th session, then there is a $10 charge per session. If available, a student may choose to continue their work in group counseling, free of charge. There are no fees associated with group counseling, regardless of the number of sessions a student has had in individual.

Sessions 1-8: No charge
Sessions 9+: $10 per session
Graduate and Online Undergraduate pricing for individual counseling, per academic year:
Intake session: No charge
Sessions 2-8: $40 per session
