First Appointments

Once you have registered with us, we aim to offer you an initial assessment with a counsellor within two weeks. This first assessment is an opportunity to discuss your concerns with the counsellor and for you to work out together what might be a helpful way forward. This will last for up to 50 minutes. If you and the counsellor decide that you would benefit from counselling, you will be placed on the waiting list for up to ten counselling sessions.

We will ask you to arrive five to ten minutes early for your initial assessment to fill out a questionnaire, which is part of our standard evaluation system. If you have any questions about the service, about other sources of help, or want to pick up some self-help literature, please feel free to visit our office, phone us (0141 330 4528) or email us (studentcounselling@glasgow.ac.uk) We are open from Monday to Friday between 9 am and 5 pm.
