Counseling Services provides numerous supportive resources to assist members of the OTC community - high school students, college students, and OTC staff - with career and personal decisions. We offer services on a regular basis at the Springfield Main Campus and the Richwood Valley Campus, and distance counseling services for the Branson, Lebanon, and Waynesville Education Centers. Our staff has extensive experience working with a variety of issues faced by OTC's diverse student population and each counselor holds national certification in his/her area of specialty. Our counselors are dedicated to providing individualized couseling services that are short-term, free, and confidential. Our main office is located on the Springfield Campus in ICW 219.
