Mental Health and Mindfulness
We promote a mindful campus
Mental health encompasses our social, emotional and psychological well-being. Strong mental health is important at every stage of life, as it determines how we handle stress, make choices and relate to those around us.

Therapy and Counseling
Free mental health counseling is available to students by appointment.
Our team of therapist CAN listen and CAN help you to maintain a healthy balance of life, family, school and relationships.
Call (951) 571-6103 or email wellness@mvc.edu to get started. All counseling is kept highly confidential.
Therapy can be for everyone, whether you believe your problems are big or small.
Therapy and counseling can help you learn to manage academic stress, test anxiety, thoughts of self-harm or suicide, relationship challenges, trouble sleeping, agitation/anger, sexual identity and orientation, depression/anxiety, substance abuse, eating disorders, domestic violence, emotional crisis, rape, and difficulty adjusting to major life changes.

You Can Help Prevent Suicide
Every life matters. You can help prevent suicide by educating yourself about the warning signs of suicide and by sharing valuable resources with your community.
