Counseling Services: Distance Learners
We know that due to the extensive programs at Fitchburg State College for Distance Learners, there are many students that may not be able to avail themselves of Counseling Services at the main Fitchburg campus. However, we do want to help you to access mental health services in your area. Below is a partial listing of mental health services in the Massachusetts area. Further down this page, there are three "find-a-provider" resource links, provided by national professional organizations (e.g., American Psychological ASsociation). If you can not locate a service in your area and would like help doing so, please contact one of our staff at (978) 665-3152. For more general mental health
information please look at our Resources
page for interesting links.
