We know it can be daunting approaching someone for support, but are we are a friendly team of Mental Health Advisors are available for 1:1 appointments for an open, honest, and non-judgemental discussion. Appointments are an opportunity to talk and gain an understanding of how things are for you and what support (if any) you are currently receiving.
Outcomes may include a safety plan, going away with some self-help strategies and resources or you may be signposted to other support services both internal and externally to the University.
