Self-Isolation and Mental Health
It can be difficult during the school year to balance our work load with our mental health and general well-being. This can lead to stress and burnout, especially in an uncertain world.
These pages will provide you with a list of suggestions and options of things, along with some explanations as to how those suggestions may help you, that you can do to stay as mentally healthy as you can, while we do our part to fight this pandemic by staying home.
If you need help, feel free to go to or contact the Wellness Center for help. It is in Coughlin Hall's Lower Level between the fitness center and Student Involvement Center and is open during the school year Monday-Friday from 9 AM to 12 PM and from 1 PM to 5 PM. You can either visit in-person, call (708) 524-6229, or email wellness@dom.edu. You can also access the Wellness Center Online through this link. You can schedule appointments over the phone or through Wellness Center Online.
Summer hours for the Wellness Center are 9 AM to 4:30 PM Monday through Friday with in-person visits being offered on Tuesday and Thursday.
If you need care when the Wellness Center is closed, contact Dr. Kimberly Harden, the collaborating physician, by calling (708) 660-3900 and asking to page the on-call physician. Other urgent care options are also available. In the event of an emergency, dial 911 from a campus phone.
Basic services, including sick visits and counseling, are covered by your student fees. Charges for tests, labs and procedures beyond the basic services will be applied to your student account. Check our fee schedule for details.
