Mission
To provide mental health and wellness services that support the well-being and academic and social-emotional growth of students; and to educate the campus community about mental health and wellness.
Staff
The Wellness Center is staffed by a licensed mental health professional.
Services
The Wellness Center provides free, confidential and short-term counseling services to students currently enrolled at Honolulu Community College (HonCC). Participation is completely voluntary. Counseling and consultation services are strength-based and solution-focused to help students manage personal life issues and navigate their college experience.
Services begin with an initial appointment to assess needs and complete paperwork. These consultation sessions are typically 30-45 minutes in length and will help determine next steps in providing the appropriate level of support. A student whose needs exceed the scope of HonCC Wellness Center’s services will be referred to community resources or providers.

- Supportive short-term counseling
