Welcome, students, to Educational Counseling and Disabilities Services. We are here to provide professional counseling to Ferris students for their career and educational pursuits.

Educational counseling facilitates the exploration of strengths and challenges in a student's academic performance through insights into the learning process. Through assessments and meeting with a licensed counselor (in groups or individually) a students are guided to reaching their highest potential for success.

Career counseling offers students the opportunity to explore career fields and potential areas of study. Students take career assessments and process the results with a Licensed Professional Counselor. This one-on-one attention helps students focus on their personal and professional interests, career values, and personality type to find a compatible career and academic major.

Counselors are available by appointment or on a walk-in basis. Our counselors are licensed by the State of Michigan and bound by the rules of the profession regarding confidentiality.
