Welcome to the Counselling Service

The Counselling Service offers a high standard of service in counselling for any student who is finding that their difficulties are hard to manage and/or affecting their studies.

The Counselling Service is here to enable students to become more effective in their lives and overcome barriers to achieving their full potential.

The Counsellor aims to help you to explore and understand more clearly the issues that concern you.

You may feel anxious about approaching the Service and talking about your concerns. This is normal. Whatever your problem you will be very welcome and treated with respect.

On these pages you will find all the information you need to answer questions you may have about counselling and whether it is right for you; how to access the Service and information and help on particular issues for yourself or someone you know.

If you cannot find the information you need, please contact us using the information on the right of the page.

Opening hours are 9.00 am - 5.00 pm Monday - Friday

If you need out of hours support please contact Mental Health Matters on 0800 085 7027
