About CAPS
Our Mission
The mission of Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) is to support our students in achieving their academic goals by improving their psychological and emotional health and overall wellbeing. CAPS achieves its mission by promoting a supportive climate committed to diversity, equity, inclusion, and access to psychological services. This is done by providing culturally informed mental health services, building community, and training the next generation of mental health professionals. CAPS is dedicated to addressing all forms of systemic oppression, racism, and discrimination.
Accreditation
International Association of Counseling Services (IACS)
CSULB Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) is fully accredited by the International Association of Counseling Services (IACS). The basic purposes of the International Association of Counseling Services (IACS) are to encourage and aid counseling services throughout the United States and internationally to meet high professional standards, to inform the public about those which are competent and reliable, and to foster communication among counseling services operating in a variety of settings. IACS is committed to furthering the visibility of the counseling profession and improving its quality. IACS has evolved standards that define professional quality and has established criteria for accreditation which reflect these standards. IACS accreditation also acts as a stimulus to a wide variety of agencies to upgrade their professional services to meet accreditation standards; and the Association provides the profession and the public with information about those agencies which it has accredited. Accreditation is open to University and College Counseling Centers and Public and Private Counseling Agencies.
