STUDENT SUPPORT

COUNSELING

Counselling gives you some time and space to explore any issue that is of concern to you. A counsellor are specially trained to listen attentively and provide a supportive, non-judgmental environment where you have the opportunity to engage in self-reflection, with a focus on your well-being and personal growth.

 

You can also get advice on where to find additional support and how best to move forward. If you are interested in meeting with a counselor in a confidential setting about the difficulties you are experiencing, the Student Counselling Service offers One to One Counselling. If you are a student struggling to cope, please do not hesitate to contact us. We are here to help you.

Examples of the issues students seek counselling for include:

  • Stress or Anxiety
  • Relationship Difficulties (family, romantic, platonic)
  • Depression or Mood Difficulties
  • Grief or Bereavement
  • Homesickness or Loneliness
  • Lack of Motivation or Direction
  • Sexual / Personal Identity Issues
  • Parental Separation
  • Assault or Abuse
  • Self-Harm
  • Bullying or Racism
  • Addiction or Substance Use
  • Eating or Body Image Issues
  • Unplanned Pregnancy
  • Low Confidence or Self-Esteem
