Student Counseling Services
TTUHSC El Paso counseling services are available through students’ payment of the Student Services Fee and Student Medical Fee. These resources are provided to enhance wellness by providing you the opportunity to manage life’s problems before they become serious and impair your academic and professional performance.
As of academic year 2022-2023, both on-campus (Student Support Center) and external third-party counseling providers are available to all TTUHSC El Paso students. Regardless of the provider you choose, know that confidentiality is assured; TTUHSC El Paso schools do not receive information about any student participation with any mental health provider.
