Counselling and Wellbeing Services
This service is designed to help students with mild to moderate needs to manage their mental health. Depending on what a student may need they offer a range of different approaches, including counselling sessions, self-help resources and group work.
Student Listeners
Student Listeners are a confidential, student-led service where students can talk and share their problems either online or in person.
You can expect an empathetic and non-judgmental space. Our trained Student Listeners will listen without advising or directing you. This is a term-time only service.
Book a session to connect with us.

The University Chaplain welcomes all students, offering pastoral care and a calm space at the heart of campus. A Chaplain is someone independent you can talk to in confidence, who can provide support and advice at times of stress and crisis. They are also available to help explore spirituality.
Disability Service
If you have a chronic mental health condition you can register with the University's Disability Service. While they cannot directly help with your mental health, they can ensure that appropriate support is arranged for you during your time at UofG.
