eCounselling

What is eCounselling?

eCounselling is a confidential online service that allows you to ask a counsellor questions from the comfort and privacy of your own computer. It’s perfect if you’ve wanted to talk to a counsellor but weren’t sure how to go about it or were uncomfortable making an appointment. Submitting your question to the eCounselling blog is a great first step to getting the information and support you need.

eCounselling provides support for issues affecting students’ study or wellbeing. It’s not intended as a replacement for seeing a counsellor in person. The answers given are of a general nature only. Face to face counselling is usually advised for more serious or ongoing problems.

This is not a good way to deal with crisis situations. If we are concerned about your safety we may call you to check on your welfare. If you need to make an appointment, please call (02) 9852 5199 or visit the Counselling Service on your campus. Lifeline is also available 24 hours a day on 13 11 14.
