Let’s Talk
Let’s Talk and Let's Talk Residential (LT-R) offers free, informal, and confidential phone consultations to UTA students. During brief consults, a counselor will listen to your concerns and provide support, perspective, and suggestions for resources.
Single Session Therapy
Single Session Therapy (SST) is a specific, structured visit that intentionally involves just one visit with a clinician. SST is designed for students who would like to meet virtually with a therapist on a one-time basis to talk about a specific concern in a very focused way.
TRY LET’S TALK IF YOU ARE:
- Unsure about counseling and wanting to see what it is like to talk to a counselor.
- Not interested in counseling but wanting some feedback and resources.
- Wanting to briefly talk through a concern of yourself or someone you care about.
TRY SST IF YOU ARE
- Having a specific issue you would like focus on.
- Think your issue can be resolved in a single session.
- Not currently in counseling or have an extensive mental health history.

LT and LT-R is a brief phone consultation to offer support and resources to students. Counseling is generally a regularly scheduled 45-50 minute telehealth session. An LT counselor can assist you in determining whether counseling would be useful for you and scheduling an appointment if appropriate.
SST is design to apply a solution focused approach to a specific/short term issue, with the hope of resolution in one 50-minute virtual session. Traditional counseling involves completing a psychological intake, and collaborating on long term goals, with the intention to addressing issues over multiple 50-minute sessions.
It’s best to contact your counselor directly to see if they can see you sooner.
