The Wellness Center's health services by Prevea are available to all enrolled students. We are located with counseling services in Brotz Hall. We have a nurse practitioner and a medical assistant onsite.
Students can schedule meetings at a customized frequency and duration that works best for their conditions and needs. The nurse practitioner can collaborate with counseling services (if student signs a release) for mental health management for a more holistic and comprehensive approach to patient care. We also do outreach programming around campus to educate students on healthy living.
Office visits for the Wellness Center's medical services are at NO COST to students. We have some medications available onsite for a nominal cost. Some lab tests are also at no cost, while some have a small fee. Students will be informed of all costs before being charged.

Counseling services are available to all students enrolled at the Sheboygan campus. Services are free and completely confidential. We have two licensed counselors and a peer support provider, all offering timely on-campus support, either regularly or as needed. We're open five days a week. We also offer outreach events and presentations to meet students where they are and to educate about common mental health concerns such as stress, adjustment, homesickness, healthy sleep, etc.
You can be assured that we are bound by professional ethics and laws to keep everything you say completely confidential. Our electronic records are solely for the use of the counseling center. We can collaborate with other providers or Lakeland staff only when a student requests this, and when a specific release of information is signed. When counselors provide services to a student's friends or significant other, they will not be informed of any contact with the other student. The only exceptions are if there is an imminent risk to oneself and others, or direct report of child/elder abuse. Otherwise, your secrets are safe with us!
No! While we do treat depression, anxiety, suicidal thoughts, and other conditions, we also help with adjustment issues, stress, grief and loss (e.g. breakups), relationship issues, etc. Peer support (with a recently-graduated student) is another good option for non-clinical concerns. If you do have a pre-diagnosed condition, be sure to continue taking prescribed medications and contact us for ongoing care as soon as you can. We can collaborate with your previous provider or our on-campus health services for continued mental health care and prescription management.
Easy - just email counselingcenter@lakeland.edu and a counselor will get back to you within 24-48 hours, usually sooner. We can always see students within a week or two, depending on availability and student need. Same-day appointments (during business hours) for more urgent or time-sensitive concerns can usually be arranged but for more pressing concerns, campus safety is well-trained to assess and manage mental health crises.
