Mental Health Support
Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS)
Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS) provides comprehensive mental health support to students through both counseling and psychiatric care. In addition to clinical services, we offer referral coordination, consultation, and guidance to help students access the resources that best support their healing, growth, and sense of belonging.
If you are not already established at CAPS, you can get started by scheduling an initial consultation. To schedule an initial consultation to discuss your concerns, needs, and next steps, complete a brief questionnaire.
CAPS Connect
CAPS Connect is a brief, free, confidential conversation with a mental health professional, offered in locations across campus. Sign up in advance prior meeting with a CAPS clinician.
In the Fall 2025 semester, on Thursdays, from 1-3 p.m. Sarah Fay-Koutz offers CAPS Connect sessions for Lyman Briggs students.
Wellbeing Resources
Health Promotion offers an array of campus, classroom, and individualized educational programs, campaigns, referrals and other strategies on wellbeing topics like these:
Resources for Food Insecurity
- Have you worried that your food would run out before you had money to buy more?
- Have you cut the size of your meals or skipped meals because there wasn’t enough money for food?
- Have you been unable to afford a balanced meal?
- Have you had to choose between buying food and paying for other essentials like rent or medicine?
If you answer "yes" to any of these questions, you may be experiencing food insecurity and should consider utilizing the MSU Food Bank and Basic Needs Program.
The MSU Food Bank is available to all MSU undergraduate students, graduate students, professional students, scholars, and other eligible participants. Guests may visit once per week to access fresh dairy, produce, proteins, shelf-stable items, cleaning products, and personal hygiene supplies.
