Counseling

Many people find help by talking to their friends, family, or faculty and staff in their university. There are times in life when students may feel overwhelmed or stressed out about something. When you feel your own efforts and personal resources are not enough to better manage your life or reduce your stress, it makes sense to seek counseling. The services are available to all undergraduate and graduate students. We attempt to help with a variety of psychological concerns related to personal, emotional, developmental, social, and academic issues or refer you to other services outside of university community.

To make an appointment or get more information regarding counseling services fill out the counseling form or call +370 650 97297 in case of a psychological emergency. If you are unable to attend an appointment, please let us know as early as possible. We accommodate all personal and academic commitments, but the more flexible you can be in terms of availability, the more likely you are to be seen sooner.

Meeting with a counselor doesn’t need to be scary. Fill out a form with your concern and a professional from LCC will meet with you to start a conversation and create a program specific to you in order to help. Counseling can help in different ways--one-on-one, group mentoring, resources and accountability.

There are many ways to strengthen your emotional health by utilizing online resources. Often wellness begins through an understanding of our own experiences. There are several online anonymous screenings that can be helpful in recognizing what you may be going through. Please note that these screenings are NOT a substitute for a careful assessment and diagnosis done by a mental health care professional. We encourage you to schedule an appointment with your doctor or a mental health professional if these symptoms are interfering with your daily life.
