Our student counsellors offer, confidential and non-judgmental support to students who are experiencing personal and/or academic concerns. Most of the medical undergraduates are going through different pressures and difficulties associated with academic work as well as due to peer pressure, isolation and separation from home etc. Students use counselling for all kinds of different reasons and you don’t need to be in a crisis to meet our counsellors. Student counsellors in FMAS are not providing professional counselling services as registered counsellors, but we are here to help and refer you to appropriate services based on your needs. Our services can help you to find ways forward, make decisions, gain new perspectives, discover solutions and come to terms with and manage challenging life events. We have a young team of student counsellors and you can talk to us about any personal, social or emotional concern, whether or not it is affecting your work or studies. At present the counselling services have a close collaboration with external resources for those who need professional or clinical interventions.
