Online Counseling Appointments
Welcome to Saddleback College’s Online Counseling Services. This service provides students with the ability to meet face to face with a counselor online. We understand that students are busy and that getting to campus can be challenging for many reasons, so we wanted to provide our current students with an alternative option to meeting with a counselor. Our online services use Cranium Café, which is a secure online portal.
Hi! I’m David Francisco, counselor here at Saddleback and I’m available to meet with you for an online appointment! The only difference between an in person and online appointment is our meeting location, other than that it’s as if we were meeting in my office. I’m excited about this new service and can’t wait to meet and help you online!
