We recognize your mental health is important. We also recognize that studying and practicing engineering is rewarding, but also demanding. To better support you, the Counseling Center has launched a new embedded services program. By placing counselors onsite, the Counseling Center makes it easier for engineering students to get mental health services and offers more direct access for Clark School faculty and staff to consult with a mental health professional about how to best support students. AnTanique Buckley serves as an Embedded Counselor from the Counseling Center within the A. James Clark School of Engineering.

The Embedded Counselor is a licensed mental health professional employed by the Counseling Center. As such, all mental health services provided by the Embedded Counselor are confidential and follow Counseling Center policies (visit the Counseling Center FAQs page for more information).

The Embedded Counselor works specifically for Maryland Engineering, tailoring services and programs to the unique needs of engineering students. Information about additional Counseling Center services, resources, and programs is available at counseling.umd.edu. Urgent services are available to students in person at the Shoemaker Building during business hours or by phone at (301) 314-7651 outside of business hours.

To schedule an appointment with AnTanique Buckley for mental health services, call the Counseling Center front desk at (301) 314-7651 and ask to schedule an appointment with the Embedded Counselor for Maryland Engineering. The Embedded Counselor will assess your needs to determine how best to support you.

The Embedded Counselor provides outreach programs tailored to Maryland Engineering student groups, classes, departmental needs, and faculty or staff by request. Programming is focused on mental health education and awareness. Programs for students are focused on their mental health needs while programs for faculty and staff are focused on techniques for best supporting students. To request an outreach program, contact the Embedded Counselor or submit a Counseling Center outreach request.

If you are a faculty or staff member in Maryland Engineering and would like to talk about your concerns for a student, you can contact AnTanique Buckley for guidance on how to support your student(s).
