Online counseling provides a way for students to connect with a counselor via email, live chat, and/or videoconferencing.

The following tips will give you an overview of appropriate etiquette when interacting in this new environment. It is important for you to read and understand the information below in order to use online counseling services and make the most of your virtual appointment.
