Counseling and Psychiatric Services (CAPS)

MSU Counseling and Psychiatry Services (CAPS) functions as the primary mental health center for MSU students. Nationally, college students report high levels of anxiety and depression, and students at Michigan State University are no different. Stress is also a major impediment to academic success and can exacerbate depression and anxiety.  

CAPS is committed to connecting students to the care they need to be academically successful and healthy, and we do so through the provision of virtual and in-person care 

For our psychiatry patients, a laid off parent or loss of insurance coverage can be the difference between getting needed treatment and dropping out of school. We are doing everything we can to ensure students will continue to access the care they need and not have to shoulder the burden of additional costs. To do this requires additional resources. Your support today will allow us to continue supporting  Spartans in need.
