The Psychological Services Center offers free, confidential counseling for all enrolled LIU-Brooklyn students. We’re here to help with all kinds of problems – whether they are life-changing, ordinary, or anything in between. No matter what you’re going through, talking about it can help. We have no session limits; the clinic is available to you for as long as you are enrolled at LIU.

Hours of Operation
Mondays 10am-4pm
Wednesdays 1pm-4pm
Thursdays 10am-4pm
To get started with counseling, please send us an email at bkln-psychservices@liu.edu and include your name and phone number. You will then be matched with a counselor with whom you’ll have a brief consultation (10-20 minutes), either by phone or in person, about what you are going through and what you are looking for. Through this screening, we can direct you to the resources that best fit your needs and goals. If your needs and goals involve ongoing counseling, you and a counselor will be matched to begin counseling in our clinic on LIU Brooklyn’s campus.
We also provide comprehensive psychological assessment to give you a detailed picture of how you work and what might help you get where you want to go. If you are interested in any or all of these services, please let us know! You can reach us at bkln-psychservices@liu.edu.
