What to expect from counselling
Yarning can help you understand what is going on for you. A counsellor can also allow you to see other options – there are always options – sometimes it is hard to see that when you are facing barriers or struggling.
Students come to counselling for many reasons, including relationship and family issues, life events and trauma, stress, anxiety, depression and suicidality, self-harm, along with concentration and academic issues.
Counselling is:
Culturally safe
A place to explore options
Holistic
Client-centred counselling
Face to face; zoom or phone appointments available
OK to bring a support person
