Student Psychological and Counselling Services

We're dedicated to helping UCL students with personal, emotional and psychological concerns. Our service is available at no cost to undergraduate and postgraduate students registered at UCL.

Our service is intended to provide short-term counselling, cognitive behavioural therapy, psychiatric support and psycho-educational groups to help you deal with a range of personal, emotional and psychological concerns. As such we do not provide support for long-term conditions or in the event of an emergency.

Please download our booklet for more information on what support we can and cannot provide.
