It's good to talk!
February 2013
We understand that sometimes it’s difficult to say what’s on your mind. We know that talking to a counsellor can help you cope with difficulty and make positive change. It's Good to Talk is a very useful website that can help you better understand what therapy/counselling is and how it can help you.
SPACE4U
SPACE4U is a daily drop in service - based at 50 Park Place ONLY - where you can see a counsellor for 10-15 minutes (between 3 & 3.45pm) to ask questions or borrow a book. It is not a psychological assessment or a therapeutic session.
Extenuating Circumstance Letters
Please note The Counselling Service do not routinely write extenuating circumstance letters unless you are currently receiving counselling from our service. Please discuss your requirements with your counsellor.
Urgent Advice & General Information
For general information about counselling and where to obtain urgent advice, please read the Counselling Service Leaflet for students. There's information if you're Responding to a Crisis, and also for After a Crisis.
We are able to provide a British Sign Language (BSL) counsellor if required.
Bear in mind that some changes in psychological state may have underlying physiological causes, ranging from altered hormone levels to viral infections. To check this possibility, you can consult your G.P.
