SUNY Broome Counseling Services cannot provide 24-hour emergency management, particularly to those using services at a distance. Please know that due to safety reasons, we only reply to our student emails Monday through Friday 8:00 am – 5:00 pm. We want you to know what is available if you are ever experiencing an emergency, including a mental health crisis, please be aware of the following 24/7 resources:

  • If on campus, call Public Safety at 607-778-5083 or 911 from any phone.
  • If in the Binghamton area, call the Crisis Center at 607-762-2302.
  • For all serious/imminent emergencies: Call 911, or go to the nearest emergency room.

You may also call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 800-273-8255 or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting HOME to 741741.

Counseling Services offers supportive services to help you be successful in college and in life. We are committed to helping you resolve personal problems or concerns that interfere with academic achievement, and to helping you develop behaviors that enhance your decision making skills, increase self confidence, and enable you to meet future challenges.

Students often experience social, personal, and family concerns while attending college. When such concerns or other barriers to academic success arise, students may turn to one of our professionally trained counselors for help in regaining perspective and purpose. Through individual, confidential meetings, a Counselor can help you explore, understand, and deal with your unique personal issues and help you balance your personal, career, and educational goals.

Counselors  also assist students in maintaining personal safety and mental well being while on campus as members of the CARE Team.

We encourage you to meet with a counselor early in your first semester—during a scheduled appointment —to help set you off on the best path to success for your time here at SUNY Broome and beyond.
