Student Mental Health

and

Wellbeing Service

The Mental Health and Wellbeing Team provides an easily accessible

counselling service which is available to all undergraduate and

postgraduate students at the university.

Life at university can be challenging and impact on students in various ways. It's not

uncommon to feel overwhelmed and stressed at times. The Mental Health Wellbeing

Service provides counselling for students experiencing a wide range of issues.

Some of the most common issues which students come for help with are stress,

low mood, poor self-esteem and relationship problems.  Many students benefit from

exploring their emotions, thoughts, and behaviours in the confidential

counselling setting.

The service is staffed by a team of qualified counsellors and psychotherapists

working with a variety of approaches. Most students meet with their

counsellor or therapist for a series of anywhere between 1 and 6 weekly

appointments (and sometimes longer where appropriate).

We operate a year round service and can be contacted by phone on

(0141) 273-1393, 9am - 5pm Monday-Friday (please leave a

message out with office hours and a member of the team will get back to you),

by email positiveliving@gcu.ac.uk or at one of our evening drop-in

sessions.

 

20 minute one-to-one drop in sessions are held;

Tuesday and Thursday evenings,

5pm -7pm

M136 (George Moore Building).

 

 

The Mental Health and Wellbeing Service also runs a therapetic groups and

workshops throughout the year. Please see our groups page for more info.
