The Mental Health Service provides 24/7/365 coverage to the Harvard community, offering counseling for a wide variety of concerns:

  • bereavement
  • transitional issues and adjustment difficulties
  • depression, anxiety, or stress
  • concerns interfering with work or relationships
  • sexual concerns
  • high-risk behaviors around food, alcohol and/or other substances

Treatment options include individual psychotherapy, medication management, biofeedback, and group and couples therapy.

All visits are confidential and mental health records are held separately from the rest of the medical record, except for information on medications and hospitalizations. For those who desire greater privacy, mental health providers are available at one of three non-Holyoke Center satellite clinics on the Harvard Law, Business, and Medical School campuses. Appointments may be made weekdays during business hours by phone or in person, and are scheduled within 24 to 48 hours of initial contact. For more urgent concerns, same-day appointments are available during regular hours of operation, and mental health clinicians are on call evenings, weekends, and holidays. For further information contact the Mental Health Service or visit the HUHS website.
