Meet Tanya
CAPS counselor Tanya Aguilar Kingsley, LMSW provides counseling and consultation for ILR students and other students on site at Ives Hall.
CAPS support designed for IRL students
School of Industrial and Labor Relations (ILR) students and other students can now access Counseling & Psychological Services (CAPS) support on site at 133 Ives Hall.
Ives Hall is one of CAPS' Embedded Therapist sites through which ongoing mental health support is provided from satellite locations across campus. The goal is to supplement CAPS’ offerings at Cornell Health with convenient, on-site services tailored to specific student audiences.
Embedded therapist services at Ives Hall are ...
- designed to meet the needs of ILR students; open to all students
- offered by CAPS counselor Tanya Aguilar Kingsley, LMSW
- provided at 133 Ives Hall, as well as by Zoom (see services and hours below)
- offered to supplement Cornell Health's full breadth of services
Services include:
- "Let's Talk" drop-in consultation (free)
- Individual counseling ($10 visit charge)
"Let's Talk" drop-in consultation
Let’s Talk is a drop-in service that allows students to consult informally with a Cornell Health counselor without an appointment. Consultations are offered first-come, first-served, and are typically about 20-25 minutes in length. (Note that Let's Talk is not a substitute for counseling, and not appropriate for urgent concerns or mental health emergencies.) Learn more about Let's Talk.
Please check back for Tanya's Let's Talk hours.
Students may also access other Let's Talk hours, locations, and providers. See our main Let's Talk page for details.
Individual counseling
Tanya provides single-session therapy and short-term individual counseling from her office at 133 Ives Hall, as well as by Zoom.
Students wishing to schedule a counseling appointment with Tanya should first schedule a CAPS access appointment. During this free 25-minute appointment, you can discuss your concerns with an access counselor, and request a counseling appointment with Tanya.
