Personal Counselling
Luther College employs two counsellors (one male and one female) who are available for students encountering personal struggles, mental health issues or who just need advice.
Mrs. Wilkinson and Mr. Belous offer counselling services remotely and in-person.
During remote counselling, all precautions will be taken to maintain privacy and confidentiality, including using secure videoconference technology. Counsellors will not record sessions and will make students aware of any risks to confidentiality.
To make an appointment, or if you have questions or concerns, please email Mr. Belous at bryan.belous@luthercollege.edu or Mrs. Wilkinson at colleen.wilkinson@luthercollege.edu.
