    Counseling Center Brief Screening Program Information

    Behavioral health – which includes mental health, substance use, and more – is a key part of your overall well-being. Brief screenings are the quickest way to determine if you or someone you care about should connect with a behavioral health professional. Think of these as a checkup from your neck up. The Counseling Center offers the Mindwise Brief Screening program which is completely anonymous and confidential, and immediately following the brief questionnaire you will see your results, recommendations, and key resources. Please check out the Counseling Center website at www.tntech.edu/counsel for more information.
