Counseling
What happens if you get sick? Our infirmary is staffed seven days a week with nurses from nearby Lake Forest Hospital. They’re here to treat sick students and supply over-the-counter medications. They dispense prescription medication to students on a long- or short-term basis. They can also take you to any medical appointments you need, like the dentist or doctor.
At times, a student may need the help of a professional counselor to explore and resolve personal difficulties. The counselors at LFA are available to provide clinical assessments, short-term therapy, group therapy, educational resources, and referrals to outside agencies or therapists. Counseling is available to all LFA students and can be initiated by parents, faculty, or students themselves.
Boarders who are too sick to attend classes are cared for in the infirmary; if you become ill after school hours, your dorm parents will look after you, or take you to Lake Forest Hospital if necessary.
