The Center for Well-Being Programs and Psychological Services

Welcome to American University’s Center for Well-Being Programs and Psychological Services. We're here for all AU students, whether you're full-time or part-time, undergraduate or graduate, and our services are always free and confidential.

If you are here for a counseling appointment, please enter our virtual waiting room (Center Doxy Platform).

The Well-Being Center also provides victim/survivor advocacy support services. Sudents can book an appointment with our Victim/Survivor Support Advocate by selecting the option "Schedule with Victim Services Advocate".
