Mental heath and wellness support

If your mental health concerns and/or stressful events negatively affect your daily emotional state, academic performance, or ability to participate in your daily activities, many resources are available to you, including ones listed below. Duke encourages all students to access these resources, particularly as we navigate the transition and emotions associated with this time. Duke Student Government has worked with DukeReach and student advocates to create the Fall 2020 “Two-Click Support” Form, and Duke Reach has expanded its drop in hours as well.

  • DukeReach: Provides comprehensive outreach services to identify and support students in managing all aspects of well being. If you have concerns about a student’s behavior or health visit the website for resources and assistance. Go to studentaffairs.duke.edu/dukereach

  • Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS): CAPS services include individual, group, and couples counseling services, health coaching, psychiatric services, and workshops and discussions. Contact CAPS at (919) 660-1000

  • Blue Devils Care. A convenient and cost-effective way for Duke students to receive 24/7 mental health support through TalkNow. bluedevilscare.duke.edu

Managing daily stress and self-care are also important to well-being. Duke offers several resources for students to both seek assistance on coursework and improve overall wellness, some of which are listed below. Please visit studentaffairs.duke.edu/duwell/holistic-wellness to learn more about the following:

Wellness day 2021

In lieu of a traditional class meeting on April 12, please use our regular class time to engage in reflection and wellness endeavors. A list of wellness strategies and programs is available at studentaffairs.duke.edu/duwell/wellness-day-2021 and will be updated throughout the spring.

Although the goal of Wellness Day 2021 is to provide time and space to engage in activities that enhance your well-being, please remember that wellness isn’t achieved in one day. Balancing your personal, professional, and academic commitments is a skill that should be practiced regularly and over time.
