Counseling Services/Mental Health Support

At Lanier Technical College, we care about student well-being and understand that life stressors — family, relationships, finances, school, mental & physical health — can disrupt academic success. Counseling Services aims to help students with assessing issues and concerns outside of the classroom that may create barriers to attaining academic, career and personal goal achievement. Non-academic support is offered through crisis management, brief solution-focused intervention and referrals for mental health resources.

Acentra Health is Lanier Technical College’s Student Assistance Program that provides free resources to help with life’s challenges, including coaching support, legal help, financial consultation, and 24/7 mental wellness chatbot for managing stress and finding resources.
