Online Screening Tools

Azusa Pacific University has partnered with Screening for Mental Health, Inc., to provide current students with brief, anonymous screening questionnaires for the following issues:

• Alcohol Use
• Bipolar Disorder
• Depression

• Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Referral Support

Some students may benefit from meeting with a counselor in the community due to the specific nature of their concerns or if their concerns are best addressed outside of the University Counseling Center’s brief treatment model. The UCC staff would love to be a liaison to help you connect to a therapist in the community if this is best for you. The following resources can assist you in the process of connecting to a community provider. Please call us with any questions along the way at (626) 815-2109. We are happy to help!
