Life at college can be rewarding, fun and exciting, but it can also be a time of stress and worry. There may already be a whole range of difficulties and dilemmas affecting you, making your life difficult to manage and scary to navigate. It may begin to feel overwhelming and too big to manage on your own.
Counselling offers you a safe, confidential, non-judgemental space, to focus and re-frame your thinking and how you behave and gain a different perspective. This can lead to changes in how you feel about yourself, your place in the world and your relationships.
