Personal & Academic Counseling

Philosophy of Personal & Academic Counseling Department 

Personal & Academic Counseling is here to support students as they grow academically, personally, socially, and emotionally. Rooted in cura personalis (care for the whole person), we foster a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where asking for help is encouraged, normalized, and seen as a strength.

Our counselors partner with students to offer personalized guidance that honors each student’s unique gifts, identities, and goals, helping them navigate challenges, discern next steps, and care for their overall well-being, whether they are facing a specific concern or simply seeking support along the way. By connecting students to resources and opportunities that promote equity and the common good, we support their formation as men and women for others, at SI and beyond.
