MBA SAS Staff

Students may work with a member of the SAS team, who have clinical training and licensure in the state of Massachusetts and a significant breadth of clinical experience in University mental health. SAS staff can assist students regarding a variety of issues they may experience while attending Harvard Business School, including acculturation and adjustment issues, academic and personal stressors, anxiety, relationships, time management, and obtaining balance between academic, social, and recruiting responsibilities, among other issues. There is no fee to meet with the SAS team.

Counseling and Mental Health Services (CAMHS)

Students set up an appointment with a triage clinician with the Counseling and Mental Health Services (CAMHS) team located in Harvard Square (currently serving students via telehealth). Following the completion of the triage appointment students can make an appointment with a member of the CAMHS staff, which is comprised of social workers, licensed mental health clinicians, psychologists, and psychiatrists who serve the needs of the entire Harvard University population. CAMHS operates on a short-term treatment model, so that students may meet with a CAMHS clinician for 1–9 sessions. The student health fee, which is paid by all HBS students, covers sessions with CAMHS.

Off-Campus Provider Network

Students may meet with Suzy Conway, Director of SAS, to facilitate a referral to our off-campus mental health cohort, which is comprised of social workers, psychologists, and psychiatrists who maintain private practices in the Harvard Square area and accept the student health insurance. These clinicians typically work with students who have an interest in a long-term therapeutic relationship while attending HBS. Students typically schedule an appointment with Suzy Conway to discuss their mental health needs to ascertain the level of service most appropriate to their needs and facilitate a referral.
