Coming to another country to study is a fun, but often daunting experience.
That's why at LJMU, we have a Student Advice and Wellbeing service on campus, which offers students many forms of emotional support, including ongoing treatment and drop-in sessions throughout the year.
LJMU offers free, confidential, one-to-one counselling, wellbeing drop-in sessions and a range of wellbeing workshops. If you are struggling to adjust to life at LJMU or having difficulties with your mental health, whether that be due to university life or for reasons outside of university, the LJMU Student Advice and Wellbeing staff are here to help you. The service offers sessions such as coping with exam stress, which is important when adjusting to a new teaching style, beating procrastination and managing anxiety.
If you would like to contact LJMU regarding your mental health and wellbeing before arriving at LJMU, you are welcome to do so. A Wellbeing Advisor can help to ensure the appropriate support is in place for you before you begin your studies at LJMU. You can also contact a Wellbeing Advisor whilst you are studying here for further support.
