Statement of our commitment
to diversity and inclusion
We at Counseling Services are committed to providing a safe environment for all by recognizing the unique identities of our diverse WSU Tri-Cities community. It is part of our professional ethics and personal values to promote inclusion and to be aware of the impact of privilege, prejudice, marginalization, and discrimination in the lives of individuals. We strive to create an atmosphere where we foster dialogue and promote actions that respect and honor all persons. We believe that sharing and supporting varying perspectives facilitates connection, health, and wellness.

Mindfulness Groups are now available for all students, faculty, and staff.
“Mindfulness is a way of paying attention to whatever is happening in our lives, inside and out, in the present moment. When we connect with the present, we become aware of habitual patterns of thought, emotion and behavior. This attitude of curiosity allows us to create new and healthier ways of responding to life’s challenges”. -Centre For Mindful Studies
