Lead On, TCU Counseling & Mental Health Center

Eric Wood, Ph.D., TCU's Director of Counseling and Mental Health, visits with Chancellor Boschini to discuss how Texas Christian University is leading the way for colleges nationwide in providing counseling and mental health services to students. Through the Comprehensive Care Model, the TCU Counseling and Mental Health Center’s average waitlist is now the shortest in the country, helping students, building community and improving the mental health crisis one student at a time. “When we talk about mental health, that’s not a clinical term. It’s a developmental concern affecting every community,” says Dr. Wood. “If you have a connected culture like TCU, someone can easily encourage someone else to use a resource or to take care of themselves.”
