Psychological counselling

for HHU students offers support with personal or mental problems during the course of your studies. This is possible in individual conversation sessions or groups, workshops and lectures about stress reduction and problem solving. Confidentiality is an important requirement for both the individual sessions and the small groups. This is why discretion is an obligation for therapists and participants.

Typical burdens you might face:

  • The next exam seems impossible to pass.
  • It is difficult to concentrate on the learning material.
  • Studying is no fun, only pressure.
  • Anxiety before exams and presentations dictate my life.
  • It is hard to meet nice people.
  • There a difficulties in my relationship.
  •  …

…give you the possibility to talk about problems in a protected environment. Talking to a neutral partner can help you to see difficulties in a different light and find solutions.

… you will meet students with similar issues, which can take off the burden. The exchange with others can broaden your perspective. These groups offer a safe room for discussing conflicts and developing new strategies to solve problems. Participants can (re-)discover their personal potential, including skills and boundaries, and implement change processes.
