The Director reports to the Dean of Students and serves as a member of the Student Life Leadership Team and the University's Care Team, among other integral groups that require a mental-health educational perspective.

Assess risk and provide appropriate and timely crisis intervention. When clinically indicated, assist, and coordinate higher level of care utilizing community mental health resources.
Manage caseload for students with behavioral, family, financial, academic, or other personal concerns, often in conjunction with the Dean of Students, Health Center, Residence Life, Campus Ministry, Accessibility Resources, and other units as needed, and support Title IX incident response.
Respond to crisis situations, coordinate the Counseling Center's emergency and crisis-response procedures, participate in threat assessment activities, and coordinate the Counselor On-Call schedule.
Provide evidenced-based clinical supervision to counseling staff and interns.

Administration and Supervision
Provide oversight and management of all aspects of counseling services, including personal and group counseling, assessments, and referrals.
Lead innovation of clinical services and delivery methods to respond to changing needs of students and the community.
Formulate, organize, and administer policy for all phases of the Counseling Center operations.
Lead the team in setting goals, planning, conducting, and evaluating performance standards for quality, service, efficiency, and effectiveness for all programs and services offered.
Provide administrative supervision, training, and evaluation for Counseling Center team (3 full-time counselors, 1 administrative support, and master's-level and undergraduate interns) that align with professional and ethical standards in higher education and the counseling profession.
Ensure proper record keeping and reporting in accordance with appropriate professional and ethical standards.
