Thomas University provides three free and confidential counseling services to its students; an on-campus counseling center, a Student Assistance Program offered through Archbold Hospital, and Flexcare Behavioral Health.
Student Counseling Center
The student counseling center’s main office is located in the Campus Center. We are here to provide all TU students with a confidential space to discuss whatever is on their minds.
The Student Counseling Center also sponsors a “relaxation” space in room 103 in the Library/Rust Science building. Students are welcome to use this space to relax and enjoy the food and snacks that can be found there most days.
Appointments can be made confidentially via Calendly
Archbold Student Assistance Program
TU partners with Archbold Hospital (local hospital less than one mile from campus) to provide free counseling services on an as needed basis for all students through the Student Assistance Program. This program provides students with free and confidential counseling services either in-person or online through the hospital’s telehealth unit. The services are provided to students free of charge and are used on a confidential and voluntary basis.

- Confidential assessment services
