The College's
Counselling service is part of the Department of Student Services,
which exists to help students in various ways to make the
most of their College experience.
Sometimes,
students may have concerns which need discussing in greater
depth than a tutorial can cater for and which may be of a
more private and personal nature. The Counselling Service
provides time and space to explore any concerns in a confidential
and non- judgemental setting, with a view to helping students
prioritise, make - decisions, set goals and find solutions
for their difficulties.
If a student
has a problem - of any sort - which is causing undue worry
or upset, there is no reason for them to suffer alone without
help. The College Counsellor is a trained professional who
is extensively experienced in helping students of all ages,
backgrounds and cultures, across a wide range of possible
issues and difficulties, always in confidence.
When a
student sees a Counsellor to sort out concerns and to get
help towards achieving their personal and educational goals,
it is clearly a mature and responsible course of action to
take.
In addition to councelling individual students, the Cunselling
Service also offers workshops and seminars to groups of students
who may want to help with such things such as stress management,
assertiveness training, examination anxieties, plus other
topics by arrangement.
