Our Mission:
This mission of Baldwin-Wallace College Counseling Services is to support and enhance the personal growth and development of B-W’s student body. Services provided are tailored to assist students in meeting their personal, academic, social, and career goals. Services to meet the mental health needs of the B-W student body are provided with an emphasis on maintaining the high standards of the counseling and psychological profession. In that, a commitment to client confidentiality, ethical behavior and counseling practice that reflects current research and standards are central to our mission and daily practice.
Our Vision:
Counseling Services will reflect an emphasis on positive growth and development. Services will not focus on psychological pathology; instead it will emphasize client strength and well-being. Counseling Services will also reflect an attitude of responsiveness to the campus community. Services will be developed to respond to the current needs and concerns of the student body. Counseling Services will stay in touch with students and maintain a high level of visibility.
Our Values
Diversity – Counseling Services is committed to providing a welcoming, affirming and inclusive environment for clients and staff. Emphasis is placed on creating and maintaining a diverse staff with competence in providing multicultural counseling.
Creativity – Counseling Services encourages creativity as a gateway toward innovation and growth. We believe that maintaining an attitude of creative openness benefits both client and staff. Clients benefit with having access to services that they find current and accessible. Staff benefit by working in an environment where their ideas are honored and supported.
Excellence – Counseling Services strives to provide the highest quality services consistent with professional standards. Staff is to adhere to all professional and ethical standards. Staff is also encouraged to remain current in the latest research on counseling practice. Resources will be provided to ensure that staff has the ability to pursue professional development opportunities.
Friendliness – consistent with the College’s commitment toward creating a supportive environment for its students, Counseling Services will create an atmosphere that is welcoming and approachable. Students will find services easy to access and tailored to their individual needs and concerns.
Collaboration – while maintaining the rules of confidentiality for its clients, Counseling Services will make every effort to collaborate with the Division of Student Affairs, Baldwin-Wallace College and the broader community.
A Holistic Approach – counseling will reflect a philosophy of seeing each student in a multidimensional manner. Along with the psychological aspects of each client, dimensions such as gender identification, spirituality, race/ethnicity, culture, social and issues of development will all be considered when treating clients that seek our services.
