Free Teletherapy
Another therapy option to fit your busy schedule
Buffalo State University is partnered with BetterMynd, an online therapy platform, to offer students access to free teletherapy sessions from a diverse network of licensed mental health counselors.
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.
To access BetterMynd, just visit https://app.bettermynd.com/register and register with your Buffalo State email address. It's that simple!
You will automatically have 3 credits for individual sessions and 3 credits for their online wellbeing workshops. For additional credits, just email the Counseling Center at counselingcenter@buffalostate.edu and request more BetterMynd credits, and more will be added to your account.
To register and get started, sign-up here with your Buffalo State email address. You can also email BetterMynd at students@bettermynd.com with any questions.
Workshops
Learn skills to improve your mental health
Weekly workshops are a great way to learn skills to improve your mental health and functioning, while connecting with other students who are working on similar goals.
All of our offerings on Bengal Connect are open to the whole campus, even if you never use other Counseling Center services.
