Our offer
Psychological counselling aims to capacity building. A confidential conversation can help to understand your own situation better. Together we can search for specific solution possibilities. The long-term goal usually consists of gradual implementation of acquired and enhanced skills in daily (university) life.
Contact us via email and we will set up a first appointment. Further appointments will be made if required, duration of counselling will be planned individually. Sometimes one appointment is entirely sufficient.
Counselling for students of the faculty of medicine is free of charge. All contents and personal data will be handled strictly confidential and are covered by medical confidentiality.
If you are burdened by private or study-related problems, do not hesitate to contact the Psychological Counselling for Students of the faculty of medicine.
