Welcome to CAPS!

As the primary mental health resource for K-State students, CAPS provides a confidential, safe space to process anything that weighs on your mind. Whether you have a personal struggle that you want to work through, a relationship you’d like to improve, a societal issue that is causing you concern, or some other topic on your mind, our dedicated staff are here to listen and help you process anything that is having a psychological impact on you. Our services are open and available to all enrolled K-State students who have paid the student services fee included in their tuition bill.

CAPS provides consultations, workshops, group and individual therapy, as well as referral information for K-State campus partners and the Manhattan community.

Initial consultation meeting

Initial consultation meetings can be as quick as 20-30 minutes after you complete your paperwork. The purpose of these meetings is to discuss your needs and explore services that might be a good fit for you.

We schedule initial consultations within 48 hours of appointment time through the myLAFENE+ portal. If you cannot find an appointment that works for you through the portal, please call 785-532-6927 and we will find a time that works for you. You can also walk in for an initial consultation between the hours of 8:30 - 3:30, for first-come, first-served drop-in meetings. The earlier you come in the day, the more likely you will be seen the same day.
