The head of the Bureau of Study Counsel reports to the dean of the College. The head of UHS reports to the University provost. But there is no person or office responsible for overseeing mental health services at Harvard College.
Although the bureau’s website does include a section on UHS, the UHS mental health services website does not mention the Bureau of Study Counsel at all.
The decentralization of Harvard’s mental health services makes it doubly important that individual clinicians from the bureau and UHS communicate with each other.
And last year, UHS and the bureau implemented of a “coordination of care” system to allow clinicians at the bureau and UHS who see the same student to communicate with each other about the student’s treatment.
But actual records of a student are still kept by the individual venue the student uses—a situation that can be particularly critical if a bureau patient goes to UHS during urgent care hours.
