Let’s Chat is a service that provides MIT undergraduate and graduate students with easy access to informal, free, confidential consultations with clinicians from MIT Health’s Student Mental Health & Counseling.
Students who wish to participate in Let’s Chat can visit in-person, drop-in hours or schedule a visit during Virtual Let’s Chat hours.
Let’s Chat isn’t formal counseling; If you are currently in distress or would like to connect with a clinician for mental health services, call Student Mental Health & Counseling at 617-253-4481, option 2 and ask to speak with a mental health clinician.
Let’s Chat is a good fit for:
- Students who are not sure about the counseling process and want to know what it’s like to talk with a clinician or to learn about student mental health resources
- Students who are not interested in ongoing counseling but would like the perspective of a clinician
- Students who have a specific problem and would like to talk with someone about it
- Students who have a concern about a friend and would like advice on what to do
Students commonly seek consultation for concerns such as stress, sadness, anxiety, difficulty adjusting to school, family problems, and relationship issues.
