Yavapai College has partnered with BetterMynd, an online therapy platform for eligible Yavapai College students to access video-therapy sessions through a network of licensed mental health counselors.
Sign-up and get started with a counselor that’s a good fit for you.
Through this partnership, Yavapai College students can access free online therapy sessions on the BetterMynd platform. These 50-minute, live video or phone sessions are private, confidential, and can take place from the convenience of your laptop or smartphone. Students can schedule an appointment with the same counselor each session or try out a different counselor.
Sessions are available during the day, at night, and on the weekends. BetterMynd also provides free self-help resources and free group workshops to eligible Yavapai students.
