Virtual Let's Talk - Dr. Cynthia Medina - Spring 2024

Welcome! Bienvenid@s! I'm Dr. Cynthia Medina, a bilingual, Latinx, social justice oriented Senior Staff Psychologist at UC Berkeley's University Health Services.

You've reached my WeJoinIn page to sign up for Virtual Let's Talk Consultations (zoom audio or video).

The CAPS Let's Talk program provides easy access to informal, brief (20 min), consultation sessions with mental health professionals from UC Berkeley's University Health Services. Consultations are free and there is no paperwork to complete. Speaking with a therapist during Let’s Talk can help you access support, gain perspective, explore resources and options, and discuss how therapy might be helpful.

To access this service, simply fill out your name in an open drop-in slot and leave a comment with a phone number I can use to call. If none of the times listed below work for you, please visit our Let's Talk program website to view the full schedule: https://uhs.berkeley.edu/counseling/letstalk/schedule

**IMPORTANT**
- Please do not sign up for a Let's Talk consultation if you are experiencing a life threatening crisis. For urgent issues, crisis counseling is available Mon-Fri, 10am-5pm by calling CAPS and requesting an urgent support counselor (510) 642-9494. For support after hours, please call our 24/7 line at (855) 817-5667.
- Please be aware that if you’re no longer able to make it, canceling the slot is important as it will make the consultation available to another student.
- Although Let’s Talk consultations are with mental health professionals, they are not formal therapy sessions and do not constitute mental health treatment. If you would like to schedule a therapy appointment with CAPS, please call (510) 642-9494. For specialty therapy appointments (e.g., Eating Disorders, Alcohol & Other Drugs, IPV) or questions/assistance related to a medical withdrawal, please call the Social Services department at UHS (510) 642-6074.

I'm looking forward to connecting with you!
