Welcome
Our services include individual counselling support to students, faculty and staff. We assist students with disabilities through Disability Access Services and we oversee Tutoring Services a fee-for-tutoring service.
The Centre provides the opportunity to discuss, in a private and relaxed atmosphere, any personal, career, or academic concern. Counselling is available for supportive or problem-solving assistance for academic, vocational, emotional, personal or social concerns. Common counselling issues include, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and academic challenges.
We believe that the best counselling is provided in an atmosphere that respects privacy and assures confidentiality. No information will be released by us to anyone without your signed consent except where required by law.
To book an appointment:
You can email, phone or come in person to the office. Walk-in students, staff and faculty will be seen according to need and availability of counselling staff.
Appointments are usually an hour. There is no cost for current students, faculty and staff, with the exception of a fee for interest and personality testing.
If you need to cancel your appointment, please provide 24 hours cancellation notice and include your name, date and the time of your appointment.
