please help
Hi,
Does anyone know if the student wellness centre are able to provide notes to show to the Dean of Office.
A friend of mine has been seeing a counsellor regarding some problems in her life and its been really impacting her school performance.
If anybody knows, I'd really appreciate the feedback. Thanks!

The doctors at SWC definitely can, but I'm not sure about the counselors.

Some of the councilors can't. It depends on their qualifications, I'm pretty sure they have to be a psychiatrist.

If you have to be a psychiatrist, then none of the counselors can, since none of them are psychiatrists.

They can provide notes. I would go to the actual physician at the SWS if its a mental health issue. I know people who have gotten notes from there.
