What We Do
Student Counselling provides a free hybrid service of in-person, one-to-one counselling, and online counselling. We also provide group counselling and workshops.
Seeking counselling is normal here and is not a sign that you are unable to cope, but of strength and resourcefulness. We support about 10% of the student population each year.
Any problem, large or small, is welcomed here.
