Our Mission
The mission of the Downing Clinic is to provide low-cost, mental health counseling services to NSHE students and those in the Reno community. Master’s level, student clinicians provide individual, couples, group, family counseling, and play therapy under the supervision of fully licensed individuals to ensure quality client care. Our goal is to provide a helping environment in which clients feel heard, valued, and represented while being engaged in the process of change. Additionally, we seek to demonstrate ethical self-development for counselors which fosters a caring, warm climate for clientele.
Location and parking
The Downing Counseling Clinic is located on the 3rd floor of the William Raggio Building. Parking for the Downing Counseling Clinic is located in the Whalen Parking Complex, adjacent to the Fitzgerald Student Services building (across the way from WRB). Clients are encouraged to park in metered parking in Whalen. After your first session, you will receive a parking pass good for 90 minutes for your next appointment with us.
