CAPS Teletherapy Services

Students have two options for teletherapy services while attending Saint Peters University. CAPS teletherapy services are available during regular business hours, Monday through Friday 9-5. To access teletherapy services in the evenings, holidays, or weekends, students can register for services through Uwill, a state-funded online therapy platform, at no cost to students.

Due to licensing laws, SPU clinicians are unable to provide teletherapy to students while outside New Jersey or US. If you know you will be leaving the state/country, Uwill may be the best option for you to avoid interruption in your care. For more information see Uwill Teletherapy Resources.
