Our providers maintain licensure through the Minnesota Board of Psychology, Board of Social Work, or Board of Behavioral Health and Therapy.  During certain times during the academic year, we offer group therapy.  St. Cloud State University also staffs a clinical case manager to help coordinate services for students in need.
