Long lines and limited counselors are why students like Cassidy Roberts turned to the UF Counseling and Wellness Center’s new online program, SilverCloud.
The CWC created SilverCloud, a self-guided online resource, to provide students an online alternative to mental health counseling during COVID-19, said Geoff Lee, a clinical assistant professor at the CWC. The online program first became available to students in November before officially launching just after the first of the year and includes modules on anxiety, depression and stress, he said.
