A Message from the Director | Frances S. Diaz, Psy.D.

Welcome Anteaters!
To our new and returning Anteaters, we are so glad you are here at UCI!
Starting a new academic year can be filled with a range of emotions, whether it’s excitement, uncertainty, anxiety, overwhelm, or somewhere in between — it’s a normal part of transition. Whatever it may be, the UCI Counseling Center is here to support you along the way.
The Counseling Center offers a range of mental health resources to support you along your journey. Please be sure to check out our website to learn more about the resources available to you. If you ever have a question, just give us a call!
Zot! Zot! Zot!
Frances S. Diaz, Psy.D., UCI Counseling Center Director
