Mental Health and Wellbeing Service

We are staffed by qualified Mental Health Case Workers, and trainee Counsellors and Psychotherapists and offer appointments to students Monday - Friday. Appointments are usually available between 9.00am and 4.00pm, with a limited number of early evening appointments.

Your first appointment will usually be an assessment of your needs and identifying the goals that you want to achieve. The appointment will last up to 90 minutes, but usually less.

Approximately 1 in 12 students at the University seek some support from the Mental Health and Wellbeing Service, for a range of different issues. These typically include low mood, anxiety or stress, bereavement, homesickness, eating problems, abuse, relationship difficulties, self-esteem or low confidence, loneliness, hopelessness, etc.

97% of students who have used our service would strongly recommend it to a friend.
