    Peer Wellness Coaching:

Coaching will focus on creating achievable goals and plans to stay balanced.

    This is an educational approach to overcoming barriers and is not a therapy or counseling session. Concerns with anxiety, depression, and mental health are best addressed by the CSU Counseling Center at 216-687-2277.

    Students can submit a request at: https://www.csuohio.edu/studentwellness/wellness-coaching or contact d.keary@csuohio.edu.
