Some things take more than a quick conversation. When stress keeps coming back, or you’re dealing with something bigger — anxiety, relationships, burnout, trauma, identity, life stuff — having a regular space to work through it can actually help. And because your schedule is packed, you can book therapy sessions at times that actually fit your life, not the other way around.
That’s why Saint Mary's offers free access to scheduled counseling through TimelyCare.
You can meet with the same counselor for real, ongoing support — on your terms.
Use it when you want to:
• Work through anxiety, depression, or ongoing stress
• Talk about relationships, family, or identity
• Build healthier habits or boundaries
• Process something heavy that’s been sitting with you
• Get consistent support from someone who actually gets student life
You can choose a counselor, book therapy sessions that fit your schedule, and build something steady — not just one-off conversations.
It’s free, no insurance information needed, and built to help you feel more like yourself again. Download the TimelyCare app or visit timelycare.com for 24/7 access to care, resources, and support.

Fall is in the air, Gaels! 🍂

On their own, pesticides and microplastics can bring toxins to the brain and even contribute to neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer’s. But what happens when they come together?

Through the Summer Research Program, Aidan Ellis ’28 has been exploring that very question. A rising third-year student pursuing an individualized major in Psychology, Neuroscience, and Biology, he's investigating a potential synergy between the pesticide chlorpyrifos and PET plastic.

It's cutting-edge research—and for Ellis, also deeply personal. Read more about his research and SMC journey here: bit.ly/4B4EvE6
