Personal Counselling Support
Free and confidential short-term face to face or online personal counselling appointments are available during business hours to all currently enrolled students at The Gordon.
In your appointment, you will have the opportunity to speak to professional counsellors about personal issues affecting your life as a student, no matter how big or small the problem may seem. All sessions are private and information is only shared with permission or in exceptional circumstances.
A limited number of sessions are available for students. Counsellors can refer or recommend external agencies to students if longer term support is required.
If you are thinking of making an appointment but not sure what to expect, please read the Counselling FAQs.
