Who we are

The Center for Psychological Wellness

The Center for Psychological Wellness was conceived hand-in-hand with the offering of BS Psychology program and through the able and competent leadership of then dean Reynaldo S. Naguit in 2008.The initial center was manned by a clinical psychologist – a faculty member too of the college who was collaborating with other Psychology faculty members in performing the mandate of the center. Trainings were afforded to equip the center head and others who share in the toil. When the center was ready, it then received clients and patients both within and outside the university free of charge. For every client, initial profiling is made, and then psychological assessment that would determine the kind of intervention to render. Interventions are counseling, psychotherapy and psychoeducation. Read more
