Psychological counseling services at the university

“It will be okay.”

“I can handle it on my own.”

“Others have it worse. I'm taking a spot from someone who needs it more.”

Please don’t let thoughts like these stop you from seeking counseling. Rest assured: No one is ever out of place in counseling, and nothing will happen that you don’t agree to. We’re here to listen, to explore your concerns together, and to meet you as an equal.

We offer you:

  • A safe, non-judgmental space and supportive framework
  • A compassionate ear and a respectful view of you as a person, including your strengths
  • Professionalism, psychological expertise, and experience
  • Empathy, ideas, encouragement, appreciation, and support

Please note that we do not provide psychotherapy or treat mental illnesses. 

The counseling services at Philipps University are easily accessible, confidential and free of charge. You can also come anonymously if you prefer – no bureaucracy, and no long waiting times!
