Mentoring for students with mental health difficulties

If you are a student who is experiencing ongoing mental health issues, and your symptoms are affecting your ability to study, we can offer specialist one-to-one support for you.  This is known as mentoring.

We can:

• liaise with academic departments with your agreement and on your behalf
• support you with managing your mental wellbeing by balancing your academic work and health difficulties
• help you develop coping strategies and skills to maximise your study potential and allow academic progress, such as:
  • time management strategies
  • organisational skills
• help you to build on your strengths and increase your confidence
• regularly review the impact of your mental health on your academic progress
