There may be occasions during your time at college when you experience problems, feel under pressure and find it hard to cope. Our counselling service can help.
Updated 19th March 2020
In the event of college working remotely due to the Coronavirus, the Counselling and Mental Health service will also need to suspend face to face appointments. All current clients will be contacted and given advice and guidance on accessing external support and self help strategies until college re opens.
