What We Do

The Bridge Peer Counseling Center is Stanford’s student run peer-counseling center.
We offer free and anonymous 24/7 peer counseling to members of the greater Stanford community. Staffed by trained undergraduate and graduate Stanford students, we are here to listen and support.

How to Reach Us

We are located in Munger Building 1, Apartment 137, and our phone number is 650-723-3392.

Our Mission

It is our belief that people have the fundamental ability to help and support others through personal interaction. We offer this interaction through peer counseling and support in an effort to guide those in need to develop their own solutions to problems. We are here to listen, to explore feelings, to help sort out issues and uncertainties, or just to talk.

Get Involved

We also offer two courses in peer counseling open to undergraduate and graduate students: EDUC 193A: Listen Up! Core Peer Counseling Skills and EDUC 193P: Peer Counseling at the Bridge. We encourage students to take EDUC 193A if they want to get involved or just learn how to become a better listener and supporter.
