About the Department
Mission
The Counseling Center serves all students, including those who are facing personal and educational challenges as well as those who are undecided in their major and/or career. We strive to support these students by promoting a holistic sense of self and wellness by providing personal, educational, and career counseling as well as Human Development courses and workshops. We also support faculty and staff and the overall BC community through consultation and training. These services are interconnected through the overarching lenses of mental health and social justice.
Vision
The Counseling Center commits to advocacy, social justice, and service to all students, including those who have been historically underrepresented and underserved. We strive to make a positive difference in our students lives by supporting and inspiring them to reach their personal, educational, and career goals.
BC Counseling Center's Holistic Approach to Mental Healthcare
At the Bellevue College Counseling Center, mental health and well-being are central to everything the counselors do. This focus is embedded across their workshops, outreach events, and classroom visits, where counselors share information about available services and address topics such as stress management, test anxiety, and other mental health-related concerns. They also engage with students at various campus events by staffing informational tables.
Counselors extend their support into the classroom by teaching Human Development (HD) courses, which emphasize mental health and student success topics such as self-esteem, stress management, learning strategies, personal relationships, motivation, assertiveness, and career exploration. These classes provide a structured and supportive environment for students to explore issues that are often discussed in individual counseling, but in a way that may feel more approachable due to the stigma surrounding one-on-one mental health services.
In addition to working directly with students, counselors consult with faculty and staff to support students who may be experiencing emotional challenges. These consultations help equip college personnel with the psychological insight needed to better assist their students.
The Counseling Center offers a full range of direct services, including individual counseling for personal, academic, career, and crisis-related concerns.

Job Description
A little bit about Thrive Counseling:
At Thrive Counseling Center, we believe that our clients deserve nothing less than exceptional services and support.
We also believe that the time between graduation and licensure is a time rich with opportunities to develop your clinical skills, as well as an opportunity to explore who you are as a therapist: what kind of clients do you love to work with? What kind of theoretical orientations or approaches to therapy do you want to learn more about? How do you manage (and thrive) within the energy balance of supporting others while also having a fulfilling personal life?
Our work culture weaves the values of support, balance, integrity, stability, diversity, healthy communication, and love of learning into all that we do.
Our Associate Therapists benefit from being part of our established practice, having access to exceptional supervision and support, all while exercising their passion for therapy and counseling, but without having to spend the extraordinary amount of time on administrative tasks that come from being on your own.
