Counselling for Students & Academic Transitions
We understand the pressures of academic life because we have been there too, from completing the International Baccalaureate program to navigating undergraduate and postgraduate education. Our work supports students facing academic pressure, identity shifts, growing independence, mental wellbeing challenges, or studying away from home, offering a space to slow down, make sense of the experience, and feel supported along the way.
