Medical, Counselling & Pastoral Support
We have a wide range of support available to give you help when you need it, ranging from practical support on any aspects of your studies to help with issues of an emotional or personal nature. If you need more specialised help, we may be able to refer you to a practitioner through Student Services. We also offer physiotherapy, hypnotherapy and Alexander Technique on site to give you further support with performance-related problems or injuries.
Your one-to-one contact with your Principal Study Professor and
your Personal Tutor give you important sources of personal and
study support. Your Head of Faculty, Course Leader and the Student
Services Department are also here to help you with any problems
that may arise.
Your Personal Tutor and Student Adviser offer practical
information and advice on housing, finance and social issues, and
are available to offer guidance on personal development, emotional
issues, health and well being. If something is causing worry or
upset, your Personal
Tutor is available to provide a confidential listening ear, and
can refer you to further support when appropriate and act as a link
between you and the institution when required.
We also have experienced counselling and chaplaincy staff for
those of you who may need professional help during a difficult
period. The Trinity Laban Counsellors are here to help you cope
with problems of a more personal or emotional nature. If you find
yourself becoming more confused, anxious or depressed about aspects
of yourself, your friendships or relationships, family problems,
recent or past traumas, eating disorders, low self-esteem or other
such difficulties, then it is best to deal with them sooner rather
than later. The counselling is free and confidential. (Please note
that you must register with a General Practitioner close to where
you live during term-time to make sure that you have access to NHS
services.)
