Counseling by BetterMynd

Virtual Counseling

Have you considered counseling, or do you need to talk with a therapist about personal issues? Many students want to meet with a counselor but are hesitant to see a professional in person or think they can’t fit counseling into their busy schedules.

Bluefield State students have access to BetterMynd, a telehealth counseling service that provides virtual counseling, virtual Wellness Workshops, and a 24/7 support phone service.

All services are free to currently enrolled Bluefield State University students.

  • The online counseling session is 50 minutes with a licensed counselor
    • Flexible counseling appointments are available
  • The Wellness Workshops cover numerous mental health topics
    • Virtual attendance at workshops is unlimited
  • The 24/7 support line provides emotional support and/or crisis assessment and intervention
    • You don’t need to be in a crisis to call

Services are

  • Personalized Care: Choose from a diverse network of licensed therapists, ensuring you find someone who truly understands you.
  • Convenient & Flexible: Access therapy sessions from the comfort of your dorm, apartment, or wherever you feel most at ease—no commute required.
  • Confidential & Safe: Your privacy is our top priority. BetterMynd provides a secure platform where your conversations are confidential and protected.
  • Discreet & Judgment-Free: Whether you’re new to therapy or have experience, online therapy offers a discreet space to explore your thoughts and feelings.

Scheduled appointments not attended or appointments cancelled within 24 hours of the session will result in BSU being charged for the session. Make sure to attend a scheduled session or cancel the appointment 25 hours or more before the scheduled time.
