The Engle Center: Counseling Services

Welcome to Counseling Services! student

As part of the Engle Center for Counseling and Health Services we offer counseling support to Messiah College students.   (See map of our campus location.)  We are open Monday thru Friday, 8am to 5pm.

We know that taking good care of your emotional health is an important part of getting the most out of your time at college, and our counselors are available to help. Our services are confidential and provided at no cost to full time Messiah students. 

Scheduling an appointment

Scheduling an appointment is simple- you can contact us by phone or stop by the Engle Center and speak with our receptionist. To call from off campus,  our number is 717-796-5357. From on campus, call us at ext. 5357.


After contacting us to arrange for an appointment, our receptionist will ask you to complete a brief intake form which provides us with some basic information about you and why you are seeking counseling.  This information, which is kept completely confidential, is used to help us selected the counselor who is best suited to meet with you for your initial appointment.  We are usually able to arrange for you to meet with a counselor within a week of your initial call, however, if you are requesting to meet with a specific counselor, it may take longer to arrange for your appointment if that counselor's schedule is currently full

.If you are in crisis and need to be seen quickly, it's very important for you to communicate this clearly when you call for an appointment, so an emergency appointment can be arranged. For addtional crisis resources, click here.

Not sure if counseling is for you? 

We've answered many of your questions at our Answers to Common Questions about Counseling page.   Curious about who we are? Check out our Counseling Staff page. Our Self Help area is a good place to find articles and resources for a variety of topcs, like relationship concerns, depression, how to help a friend you are worried about, etc. We also have an area of our website listing helpful internet resources.

laptopIn conjunction with Screening for Mental Health, Messiah College participates in a free, confidential Online Screening for Mental Health for depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder,alcohol abuse, eating disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder. This screening is provided so you may find out, in a few minutes, whether or not professional consultation would be helpful to you.
