About Us

The UCI Counseling Center is located in the heart of the U.C. Irvine campus and has been serving of the UCI community since the early 70's. We are located on the second floor of the Student Services I building across the Student Center, next to the Cross-Cultural Center. For directions and location of the Counseling Center you may refer to building 105 in the UCI campus map.

The Counseling Center is a department within the Counseling & Health Services cluster within the division of Student Affairs. We are concerned with issues facing the entire University community and provide services throughout the campus. In addition to providing clinical services, our staff teach classes and provide workshops in the residence halls, at off-campus weekend retreats and seminars organized by students, and at University orientation programs. Center staff also provide consultation and workshops to campus student organizations, academic departments, and other University offices. In addition, our psychologists teach courses offered through the schools of Social Sciences and Social Ecology.

Mission Statement

The University Counseling Center is committed to helping students achieve maximum benefit from their UCI experience. To that end, our intention is to support students in performing well academically, to assist them through the developmental tasks associated with their college student years, to help facilitate positive coping strategies, and to learn how to be more effective in developing, maintaining, and negotiating relationships with others. The Center is also committed to managing psychological crises (emergencies) which arise as a result of students' inability to cope with the pressures associated with a stressful academic environment.
