Welcome to the Student Health and Counseling Services website! 

As the Director, I’d like you to know that the professionals that serve our students are dedicated to providing services in a warm, caring, and professional environment. 

Along with providing health and emotional support for students, we also, along with the other Student Development Services units, hold to a Wellness Model. 

Our working definition is, “A proactive approach to living, whereby individuals and communities become aware of and make positive choices in creating and promoting a healthy lifestyle.Wellness is the engagement of the mind, body and soul into one’s philosophy of living.” 

I encourage you to visit the clinic, use our services, ask questions, and to engage your mind, body, and soul as you journey to your academic success and beyond.

If you have a compliment, suggestion or complaint regarding our staff or services that was provided, please complete the Patient Suggestion Form and email us or fax it to us at 760-750-3181. Thank you for taking the time to help us improve!

Dr. Karen Nicholson, MD, MPH
