Schedule an Appointment
Students have the option of scheduling an appointment with either the Counseling Center or with BetterMynd. Please see below to learn more about what each service offers to determine what fit is appropriate for your needs.
Choosing between the Counseling Center or BetterMynd:
Counseling Center Appointments:
Please call our main number (781-891-2274) to make an appointment.
You can also make an appointment online through our Initial Consultation Self-Scheduler. Due to licensing laws, students MUST be in Massachusetts at the time of the appointment. If you are already meeting with a Counseling Center provider and need to reschedule your appointment, please call the front desk. Also, please be aware that there is more availability than what is accessible through the online scheduler. Please call the Counseling Center should you want to discuss other appointment options.
Students can schedule a remote (attend using secure video chat) or in-person (Callahan Building, 2nd floor) appointment. If you schedule a remote appointment, you can call to reserve a room in the Counseling Center in which to conduct that appointment if you otherwise do not have access to private space.
For students in crisis, we also offer mental health support outside of regular business hours. Should you need to connect with one of our after-hours clinicians, please call our main number and follow the prompts.
BetterMynd Appointments:
Students can now self-schedule with BetterMynd to begin 1-on-1 unlimited weekly teletherapy with a clinician of their choice. These 50-minute live video sessions are private and confidential and can take place from the convenience of your laptop, smartphone, or tablet. Teletherapy sessions are available during the day, at night, and on weekends, so you can get support whenever it's best for you. When students register with the platform, they will automatically be afforded 10 credits, which equates to 10 therapy sessions. Additional credits will be added to their account automatically as needed.
To register and get started, sign-up here.
If you have any questions about these services, please email BetterMynd at students@bettermynd.com as well as Bentley’s Director of Operations Andrew Dole at adole@bentley.edu.
