FOR WHOM?
Every student with a diploma contract at VIVES or HBO5 RHIZO can make use of our services, if that student is registered for at least 27 credits (this may be less in the graduation year).
Postgraduates and Ba-Na-Ba students cannot use our services, but we are happy to refer them to other instances.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT?
During our first conversation, you tell us your story and we listen.
In order to find the most appropriate support for you and your needs, we will discuss your situation anonymously within our psychological team (shared professional confidentiality). We will feed that information back to you and then decide together how and with whom the counseling can take place. If the counseling takes place within STUVO, it can include a maximum of seven sessions per academic year. You can decide to stop the counseling at any time. Sometimes one session is enough.
One-on-one discussions are free of charge.
And we are bound to professional confidentiality. What you tell us will never be shared with others (for example, parents or lecturers) without your explicit consent. You can rely on that.
If necessary, we can direct you to another service or to a private therapist. We do this with your agreement if extra help is needed, or if practical circumstances make it difficult for you to make use of STUVO's services. Under certain conditions, you may receive financial support for this assistance.
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
Don’t hesitate to contact us if you don’t feel right. A chat is without obligation; you don’t have to do anything.
HOW DO I REACH YOU?
It’s best to make an appointment. You can use the contact details below, the STUVO reception, by email, over the telephone or in person by popping in. You can also talk directly to our psychological service workers.
You can choose between a physical or an online talk. Physical appointments take place at Campus Brugge, Campus Kortrijk, and Campus Roeselare. No matter where you study at VIVES, you can choose where you would prefer to have your appointment.
