Personal Counseling

College can be a stressful time of transitional changes. Students are concerned about academics, relationships, their sexuality, finances and dealing with the college experience on a daily basis.

You may suffer from anxiety, depression, substance abuse and other mental health-related issues. Talking things over with a counselor gives you a chance to benefit from another viewpoint as you determine how you might want to approach a difficult or challenging situation.

Interpersonal Violence Counseling

Interpersonal violence counseling (IPV) offers assistance to individuals experiencing varying types and degrees of violence in their lives. The IPV coordinator provides a direct and confidential line for survivors and victims of domestic violence and/or other crimes through counseling, coordination of referrals, liaison with Public Safety, survival tips and safety measures, and tri-county general information and referrals. The coordinator also is available for classroom presentations and workshops at the college and in the community. Call 843-574-6131 for assistance.

Alcohol and Other Drug Services Counseling

Alcohol and other drug services counseling as well as assessment and outside referral services are available to all TTC students who may be affected by alcohol or other drug abuse. Alcohol and other drug use refer to the amount that a student consumes. Alcohol and other drug use can lead to abuse when a student engages in high-risk activities despite repeated negative consequences. Consequences may include academic, legal, medical, and/or psychological problems. Counseling and Career Development Services offers the following services:

  • Assessment - A structured interview is designed to collect data about substance abuse.
  • Individual Counseling - Meet with a counselor to explore issues related to alcohol and other drug use.
