Counseling and Psychotherapy
The Counseling Center provides currently enrolled Pratt students confidential, and goal-oriented individual and group psychotherapy, assessment, consultation, and referrals to outside providers. We are staffed by licensed psychologists and clinical social workers, who specialize in working with young adults and have a wealth of experience in college mental health. In addition, a consulting psychiatrist is available for psychotropic medication evaluation.
We offer daily appointments (Monday-Friday) for both in-person and virtual/remote sessions and we are available 24/7 if you have an urgent concern and need to speak to someone.
We can be reached by phone at (718) 687-5356, or email at therapy@pratt.edu, or you can come in person to our office to make an appointment.

Consultation appointments are available Monday through Friday, from 9am-3pm. If you would like to make an appointment, please email therapy@pratt.edu or give us a call 718.687.5356.
