TimelyCare

Virtual Mental Health & Wellbeing Support

Our partnership with TimelyCare grants students 24/7 access to virtual health and well-being care. There is no cost for these services for students who have paid the Health & Wellness fee. 

William & Mary Students have access to:

  • Talk Now
    Unlimited on-demand emotional support. Available 24/7 to W&M students throughout the world, to talk about anything, including anxiety, relationships, depression, and school-related stressors. This can be a supplement to therapy or a standalone intervention. It is unlimited.
  • Health Coaching
    Unlimited access to scheduled health coaching, available to all W&M students throughout the world. Develop healthy lifestyle behaviors for nutrition, sleep habits, time management, and mindfulness. This can be a supplement to therapy or a standalone as well. It is unlimited.
  • Scheduled Counseling Sessions
    Limited to 12 sessions per academic year. Available to all W&M students throughout the United States. Choose the day, time (including evening and weekend availability), and a mental health provider that works best for you. Students can review bios, specializations, and identities of the providers to find a good match. Over half of TimelyCare providers hold a BIPOC identity. All providers have training in the diverse needs of college students. This service is best for students seeking ongoing counseling services over multiple appointments. Sessions are 50 minutes and students can receive up to 12 appointments throughout the calendar year, which resets each fall. Students cannot engage in concurrent individual therapy with a provider at the W&M Counseling Center and scheduled ongoing therapy through TimelyCare.
  • Self-Care Journeys
    Explore resources for time-management, living substance-free, sleep, anxiety, depression, and more within TimelyCare's Self-Care Journeys.
