Appointments
During term time you don't need an appointment to see a counsellor for the first time. We run a drop in service every day from 2.15 to 4.15, so you can just come along any afternoon that you are free. The drop in is run on a first come, first served basis, so at busy times you may need to wait, but generally you will be seen on the same day. The drop in session lasts for approximately 30 minutes.
Please contact student counselling by phone or email if you wish to meet with a counsellor out of term time. An emergency appointment will be arranged for you.
During this initial meeting, the counsellor will work with you to find out your needs, and if counselling is the best form of help, we will arrange on-going appointments for you. During very busy times there may be a delay while you wait for you appointment, but we will set something up as soon as possible. If we have sufficient demand during busy periods, you may be offered the possibility of joining a group.
