Emergencies

The Counseling Center provides crisis-intervention services to ETSU students experiencing mental health emergencies (e.g. psychological trauma, thoughts of harming self or others).

During normal office hours (8:00am - 4:30pm) call the Counseling Center: 439-4841

After normal hours and during weekends, you should either:

  1. contact Public Safety at 439-4480 (on campus)
  2. call 9-1-1 (off campus)
  3. go directly to your local emergency room

If you contact Public Safety, they can notify our on-call counselor who can then respond to your emergency situation.

If you have been sexually assaulted, contact your local emergency room and/or police department.
For more information about sexual assault emergencies.

Do NOT contact us via e-mail for emergency situations. We cannot guarantee when we may receive or be able to respond to e-mail messages, nor can we ensure their confidentiality.
