Mary Ann Smith • No Cost
Mary Ann is our part-time Wellness Coordinator. She has a full-time job elsewhere, but helps students when needed. She is a licensed master’s level social worker, so she has the ability to refer students on for further services. She has an office on campus and once a student contacts her, she can set up an appointment for them to meet with her. She is not a therapist and will not make a diagnosis, but she is a very helpful resource.

We work with them to coordinate emergency services such as suicide threats. If you do know a student who may have suicidal thoughts, please call Sarah Hallinan at 620-229-6175 and she can coordinate the response for a situation like that. Four County also offers tele-video services as well as open-access mental health services Monday-Thursday from 1:30-2:30 pm. Four County operates on a sliding scale for students without insurance or an income.
