Military-Connected College Students
College Students With Military Connections May Be Carrying More Than Coursework
Veterans, service members, ROTC students, military spouses, and military dependents may be balancing academics with service obligations, relocation, transition, family responsibilities, identity changes, or the effects of military life.
Support That Understands the Military Context
military-experienced counseling means you should not have to spend the first part of therapy explaining why PCS moves, separation, transition from service, duty schedules, military family roles, or veteran identity matter.
Counseling can address academic stress alongside anxiety, depression, trauma-related concerns, grief, relationship strain, burnout, and major life transitions.

Location & Access
Where College Student Counseling Is Available
CCW provides virtual counseling across ten U.S. jurisdictions, including Hawaii and Washington, DC, with our Germany expansion launching Fall 2026. Availability depends on clinician licensure or authorization, the student’s physical location, current availability, insurance participation, referral or authorization requirements, clinical fit, and whether telehealth is appropriate for the student’s needs.
Students do not have to be attending college in the same state where their permanent home address is located. What matters for telehealth is where the student is physically located at the time of the session and whether the clinician is authorized to practice there.
