Counselling for University Students in York

Planning ahead for September 2027?

Starting university can bring excitement as well as uncertainty. If you

are thinking ahead about counselling support, you are welcome to

contact me to discuss availability.

Experienced university counsellor

I am a counsellor in York offering private counselling for university

students and young adults, both face-to-face in York and online across

the UK. I support people experiencing anxiety, stress, low mood,

low self-esteem and the challenges of student life.

Alongside my private practice, I work as a university counsellor.

have extensive experience supporting students with academic

pressure, anxiety, burnout, identity questions and the transitions that

come with this stage of life.

You may be finding university or early adult life more difficult than expected. Perhaps you are overthinking things, feeling stuck or lost, struggling with relationships or feeling unsure about your direction.

I offer weekly or fortnightly counselling for difficulties including anxiety, low mood, overwhelm, relationship difficulties and loss. I support many autistic students and LGBTQ+ students, offering a space where you can explore your experiences openly and without judgement.

Counselling provides a space to talk about whatever feels important to you, including thoughts and feelings that may be difficult to share elsewhere. You don't need to have everything figured out before coming to counselling. You may not know exactly what's wrong, but have a sense that something isn't right and want to explore it.

Counselling can help you to:

  • understand difficult feelings and experiences

  • manage anxiety, stress and feeling overwhelmed

  • feel more confident in yourself and your decisions

  • understand yourself and your relationships more clearly

  • cope with academic pressure, exams and uncertainty about the future

  • find ways to manage the demands of university life that work for you
