Sometimes, you need a little help and encouragement to grow.

Counselling services are available to all registered UDST students. We are here to assist students in achieving their academic and personal goals. We offer individual counselling sessions in a private, supportive and confidential environment. These services are voluntary and free of charge. We look forward to meeting you!

PERSONAL COUNSELLING

Sometimes, personal issues affect students' academic success and everyday life. Counsellors work collaboratively with students to help them resolve their problems and learn new life skills. Counsellors help students explore options, identify goals and develop plans related to personal, family, financial, and/or relationship concerns.


Student Skill Development

Support is available for all students who are experiencing academic difficulties. Counsellors help students develop the necessary skills to be a successful student. Individual sessions and group workshops are available to support students with:

  • Test anxiety and practices
  • Studying and concentration
  • Taking notes
  • Time management and organization

 

Wellness Programming

Counsellors offer a variety of workshops and awareness campaigns to promote overall student wellness that extends beyond the classroom. There are regular activities on campus to address stress management, mental health, physical wellbeing and cultural respect.
