Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) is the primary mental health clinic for UVA students on Grounds and is a confidential service. Students can walk into CAPS at 550 Brandon Ave. to meet with the counselor on-call or call CAPS at (434) 243-5150 for emergency consultation by phone Monday through Friday from 8am-5pm.

Through a partnership between CAPS and TimelyCare, all students who pay the comprehensive health fee with their tuition have free, 24/7 access to virtual mental health services. These include virtual counseling visits, TalkNow (allows students to connect with a mental health professional within minutes, any time of day, by either phone or video), and psychiatric care.

CAPS also offers group and individual therapy, as well as psychiatric services.
