On-campus

Located in the Academic Advising Center, licensed counselors Judy Reilly Roberts, M.S., LPC and Vivian Craven, M.S., LPC, NCC offer crisis counseling to students when they need it, minimizing the waiting time as much as scheduling permits. The initial intake assessment is made during the first appointment from which a counseling referral to other resources may be given.  For more information please contact the Academic Advising and Counseling Center at: 860.773.1510.

In addition to the Counselors, the College Victim Advocate, Stacey Palumbo, may also provide support to victims. Together they provide a systematic focus on the needs and concerns of a victim of sexual assault, sexual harassment, stalking, and relationship violence that:
• Ensures the compassionate and sensitive delivery of services in a nonjudgmental manner
• Ensures an understanding of how trauma affects victim behavior
• Maintains victim safety and privacy
• Recognizes that victims are not responsible for the assault, harassment, stalking, or relationship violence.
