Yale School of Medicine launched a pilot student mental health and wellness program in early October, according to a Nov. 5 press release.
The pilot program offers short-term individual therapy, including consultation and counseling, in a clinical or wellness setting following a model used in other parts of the university.
The program allows for up to four individual therapy sessions and then will assist students with the transition to ongoing care through Yale Health or Magellan.
The school hopes to hire a part-time psychologist and a wellness counselor for the program by the end of the year.
