Hello, I am Imad Nouri, the new Associate Dean of Counseling and University Transfer; Assisted Learning Services and Student Outreach and Support. Whether you are new or current student, I welcome you to Henry Ford Community College, your community college.
The counseling office has traditionally assisted students in academic advising, career and personal counseling. The office will continue providing those services while expanding state-of-the-art services to address student needs holistically with increased focus on success and wellness. The counseling faculty is a team of licensed professional counselors with various professional backgrounds and in-depth experience in university transfer and academic advising, career exploration and counseling, stress management, hypnosis, mental health therapy, clinical assessments and treatment. Counseling divisions via Assisted Learning Services and Student Outreach Services provide services to students with special needs and disabilities.
As counselors and educators, we work with students to increase their success in and outside the classroom. Again, viewing students holistically, counselors support students who seek to enhance their self-esteem and reflect on their challenges, but most importantly identify with and support them through their daily challenges. Our mission in counseling is to promote a healthy , functional and safe environment where you can view it as “home away from home”.
Again, I wish you a fulfilling, productive, successful and sometimes even fun semester.
