For Students
In order to provide care for as many students as possible, Counseling Services offers a brief treatment approach. For those seeking long-term or specialized support, our team can help you connect with therapists or other care providers in the community who fit your needs.
Counseling Services has partnered with MiResource to build a curated list of mental health clinicians, psychiatrists, and dietitians in the Boston area. You can search for a provider based on various criteria such as insurance, location, speciality, and therapeutic need.
Other helpful databases to search include:
- Psychology Today
- HelloAlma
- Innopsych (Search for therapists of color)
- Zen Care
The following steps may also help you get started:
- Call Counseling Services at 617-824-8666 x2 to discuss referrals with a clinician on the phone or in person. Please request a Case Management Triage appointment.
- Students enrolled in the Emerson BCBSMA health insurance plan can call 1-888-389-7764 or visit https://member.bluecrossma.com to find in-network providers.
