Student Counselling

Éist, UL’s Student Counselling and Wellbeing service seeks to help you to focus on and understand more clearly the issues that concern you. By respecting your own values, choices and lifestyle, the counsellor can work together with you towards making choices or changes that are right for you. Counselling is not any one thing but is adapted by the counsellor to fit the needs of the student. This relationship is will be one of support and advice, education and challenge, warmth and empathy. It will normally be on a weekly or fortnightly basis, for as long as both counsellor and student consider necessary. Each session normally lasts up to 50 minutes and takes place in a comfortable and private setting. The first meeting will consist of a detailed assessment and evaluation of the situation presented by the student. Here, also, the Counsellor will explain about the nature of the work and what the student might expect. Goals and objectives of counselling will be established at this point. Most people are seen individually, but group counselling can also be offered when appropriate. There is also a comprehensive website offering further information and a range of bespoke toolkits and self-help advice for students.
