Mental Health

Seek Help

If you are experiencing any personal problems or just need someone caring to talk to, Marshall University offers counseling and psychological services. You can contact the Counseling Center in Prichard Hall or the Psychology Clinic in Harris Hall. All services are free to full-time Marshall students and are totally confidential.

Mental and social health are just as important as physical health. Marshall University offers numerous opportunities to engage in social activities on campus.
