Please read the tips and technology requirements below before scheduling your online counseling appointment or accessing our virtual services:
Online Counseling provides a way for students to connect with a counselor via email, live chat, and/or videoconferencing. Students should prepare for and treat online counseling services as they would for in-person services on campus. During the COVID-19 emergency, online counseling services are being used in place of traditional face-to-face counseling, and we understand that web-based counseling is new to many. The tips below will give you an overview of appropriate etiquette when interacting in this new environment. It is important for you to read and understand the information below in order to use online counseling services and make the most of your virtual appointment.
To utilize videoconferencing appointments, you will need to have access to a computer with specific technical requirements listed below:
If you do not have access to this technology, you can still meet with a counselor by scheduling a telephone appointment.
Counseling faculty and staff reserve the right to end a chat or videoconferencing session if a student engages in behavior deemed inappropriate, offensive and/or discriminatory.
Dear Students,
In an effort to stop the spread of COVID-19, the El Camino College on-campus Counseling Office has transitioned to serving students in a virtual environment.
Counseling faculty and staff are available to assist you through telephone and video appointments. Additionally, you can have questions answered through our online chat features. Through virtual appointments, students will be able to utilize web cameras and video conferencing tools to share screens and “see their Counselor,” similar to a FaceTime or Skype call. If technology is not available for virtual appointments, Counselors are also available for telephone appointments.
We understand that not all students may have access to a telephone or computer. We are compiling a list of resources that may be available to address students’ technology needs to better facilitate online services.
We know this is a time of uncertainty and concern for many of our students, and we want to reassure you that although we may not be able to offer in-person services at this time, we will continue to be available to assist our students.
We are committed to continuing to offer excellent services while also protecting the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff, and community. We thank you and appreciate your patience as we continue to adapt and learn how to better serve our students in a virtual environment.
Thank you,
