MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING
Personal, individual, and short-term counseling is available to assist eligible students in dealing with concerns which may interfere with class success or personal growth. Lakeshore has partnered with BetterMynd, an online therapy platform, to offer students access to free video-therapy sessions with their diverse network of licensed mental health counselors. Supportive counseling is offered during daytime, evenings, and weekends to aid students with personal issues and enhance their mental and emotional well-being.

ORIENTATION & STUDENT SUCCESS TUTORIAL
All new students are required to complete the online Student Success Tutorial. The tutorial can be completed fully online as a self-guided course or students may attend an in-person session to complete it. The course provides students with their rights and responsibilities and learning activities to practice common technology skills to be a successful Lakeshore student.
Students must complete the tutorial with an 80% or higher before their first time program counseling/advising registration appointment.
Individual programs may require an additional program orientation session. Each respective division will coordinate and communicate dates, times, and details.
PROGRAM COUNSELING

• Clarify academic and career objectives and ensure appropriate program choice to meet goals.
• Review academic plans/pacing guides and assist in determining appropriate and realistic course sequencing.
• Assist in understanding and updating academic plans/pacing guides due to curriculum and/or course
progression changes.
• Proactively support the student’s progress and academic performance.
• Serve as a touchpoint for questions and needs and connect the student to appropriate resources.
• Empower students to take ownership of their education and understand program requirements.
Students can schedule an appointment with their Program Counselor by calling 920.693.1366 or by using the scheduling feature in Navigate.
