Meeting with a Counselor

Counseling Services is available to all enrolled Bard students.  If you do not already have a counselor, you are welcome to come during any one of our Open Clinic blocks, which are offered Monday through Friday. Please visit bard.edu/counseling/appointments where you will find a list of Open Clinic times and counselors. On your first visit you will be asked to complete a confidential on-line form. Try to choose a time when you have some flexibility, as Open Clinic is first come first served basis.
We look forward to meeting you.
