Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) provides free and confidential mental wellness and other support services for students as they pursue their academic and career goals. CAPS services are available to students in all UNMC programs and on all campuses. All services are covered by student fees and are offered at no additional charge to students.

Counseling and support needs may change over time, and students have access to the CAPS services throughout their entire UNMC academic journey. Services are divided into two branches: CAPS Clinical (mental health and wellness services) and CAPS OAR (outreach, access, and resources) support services for specific needs within the student population.

For Faculty & Staff: CAPS also provides resources for UNMC faculty and staff to aid in assisting students with mental health and wellness.

For the Omaha Community: CAPS does not provide services to the Omaha community. However, we are happy to share our referral sources for mental health.
