Law Students

Support For Law Students

Law school is difficult. The environment is highly competitive and there are times when one may feel totally overwhelmed.  We understand the intense level of stress and also that stress can evolve into anxiety, depression, anger and burnout. 

For law students struggling with mental health or substance use issues, LCL-CT is here to help. LCL-CT services are available to students at all three Connecticut law schools. Services include up to six mental health sessions per calendar year with a mental health professional utilized by LCL-CT.

Every service provided through LCL-CT is 100% confidential and 100% free.
