- If the tutor teaching and Faculty Study Services have not been helpful enough.
You can contact a study psychologist if you need help with:
- Stalled studies or thesis work
- Study skills
- Time and life management
- Procrastination
- Perfectionism
- Stage fright
- Motivation issues
- Coping with study related stress
- Returning to studies after a long break
- Learning and concentration disabilities (non-diagnostic)
The work of study psychologists focuses on guidance and preventive support and does not include mental health therapy or (clinical) assessment.
