MHWC Services
In order to serve students who have already scheduled appointments, we are unable to accept new clients for ongoing counseling through the end of fall quarter. However:
Students who are in crisis can still schedule a one-time check-in session with an MHWC therapist.
- To schedule a one-time check-in, send an email to mhwc@deanza.edu with your name, CWID and times that you're available in the next few days.
- Please include a brief statement that you are requesting intake forms for a one-time check-in.
We also offer these online services:
- TimelyCare – speak online with a mental health professional anytime, 24/7
- Wellness Central – get health and wellness information
- eCheckup To Go – learn how to support your own well-being and healthy behavior
MHWC is NOT a 24-hour program. For life-threatening emergencies, call 9-1-1.
If You Have an Emergency
