About

The SLO Counseling Service at Cal Poly offers short-term counseling and consultation to San Luis Obispo County residents who do not qualify for Behavioral/Mental Health Services of San Luis Obispo or who cannot afford private psychotherapy.

Counseling is available to children, youth, families, individuals, and couples. This counseling service is staffed by culturally responsive, well-educated and trained graduate students in the Master of Science Psychology Program under the supervision of clinically licensed psychologists in the Psychology and Child Development Department.

Counseling is provided as a service to the community for a modest fee based on a sliding scale that ranges from $5 to $25 per session. No one is denied services on the basis of race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, immigration status, age, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, physical or mental disability, or ability to pay for counseling services.

Call (805) 756-1532 for more information. A clinic staff member will return your call within 48 hours (Monday through Friday).
