Mental Health & Wellness

LBCC recognizes that students today face many stressors that can affect their emotional health–ranging from temporary challenges to more serious problems that may have a long-term impact. LBCC’s Mental Health Services providers are welcoming and affirming to assist students to gain greater insights into their own identity or develop a stronger sense of empathy for others’ identities. LBCC students are eligible to receive up to six short-term therapy sessions in a safe and confidential environment for lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, non-binary, queer, and questioning students to discuss identity, coming out, family, and relationship issues. Students may also want to explore anxiety, depression, eating disorder, and academic stress during individual therapy sessions. LBCC students are eligible to receive up to six short-term therapy sessions provided by professional, licensed mental health clinicians or graduate interns. Confidentiality is always respected with LBCC services.

Mental Health Services are available to currently enrolled students who have paid their student health fee at no additional cost. To schedule an appointment, students can visit Student Health Services on LAC or TTC. Call (562) 938-4210 (LAC) or (562) 938-3992 (TTC).

LBCC clinics are open Monday – Thursday from 8:00 am – 5:00 pm & Friday from 8:00 am – 12:00 pm. Drop-in hours for urgent matters are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Please be sure to call first as drop-in hours vary daily depending on the schedules of the available clinicians.
