Mental health is just as important as physical health ––– mental health concerns are just as valid as physical health concerns. Despite their importance, many students are unfamiliar with or intimidated by mental health care options. This guide aims to familiarize you with the resources at Yale Mental Health & Counseling (YMHC) and provide tips related to YMHC care. Seeking treatment for mental health shows strength and demonstrates one's commitment to self-care and wellness. Everyone can benefit from and deserves access to mental health treatment.

This guide was written by YSMHA and compiles information found on YMHC webpages. Please note, YSMHA is not a healthcare provider and this guide is meant to be an open resource for fellow students. Please reach out to ysmha.club@gmail.com with any questions.
