Mental Health Support
Resilience, Wellness, and Wellbeing
Are you looking for ways to thrive? Organize? RWW serves as a resource for everyone seeking to improve individual and community resilience, wellness, and well-being. We create departmental programs and cross-institute leadership that provide the inspiration and support for existing and new initiatives. Our goal is to be a resource for students, staff, and faculty to check in on their mental health and overall well-being in order to succeed during and after their time at Pratt.
Counseling Center
Do you need someone to talk to? The Counseling Center provides eligible Pratt students ( currently enrolled 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.
Other/General Support
Student Support and Advocacy
Do you have a more complex issue, such as housing, a leave of absence, or some other impactful event? The Office of Student Support and Advocacy works to help students overcome obstacles that stand in the way of personal and academic success at Pratt Institute. Student Support and Advocacy supports students in crisis and assists students in resolving their concerns.
Learning / Access Center
Do you need academic help? Do you need an academic accommodation? Pratt’s Learning/Access Center (L/AC) facilitates full access for Pratt students with disabilities so they can freely and actively participate in all facets of Pratt living. The L/AC collaborates to provide Institute-wide advisement and consultation on disability-related matters (including legal compliance and universal design) and provides individual services and tools to facilitate diverse learning styles and accommodations in a sustainable, inclusive manner.
