The Office of Guidance and Counseling takes care of higher education students’ psychological wellbeing and mental health.

The OGC has a team of registered guidance counselors, licensed psychologists and licensed psychometrician, journeying with students who explore, discover and gradually establish who they are as emerging adults. Through a variety of psychological approaches to match students’ needs, the team offers support to help address academic, personal, and socio-emotional concerns. As part of a wider community that thrives in the spirit of magis and cura personalis, the OGC team also works hand in hand with other offices through training and collaboration towards service and formation.

In the spirit of cura personalis, the Office of Guidance and Counseling seeks to be a center of best practices in guidance and psychological services. Guided by Ignatian values, we envision an individual moving towards wholeness, possessing a healthy self-concept, resilience, cultural competence, independence, and compassion. Furthermore, as part of a larger community, we work as partners and collaborators with other stakeholders in promoting the well-being of individuals.

As persons moving towards wholeness, our mission is to accompany individuals through teaching and helping, as we provide them with a safe and caring environment. We do this through communicating and coordinating with our various partners, creating synergy with them to forge a community living out Ignatian values.
