Recovery

Critical Incident Stress

The Counselling Service provides general counselling for both students and staff. However, it is often consulted or directly involved after an incident on campus or within a department involving staff, students or visitors to the university.

The aim is to provide information, structure and short-term counselling to assist in recovery and resolution of the emotional or psychological impact of an unexpected or traumatic event. Contact is focused and designed to provide immediate resolution of troubling thoughts, emotions or symptoms allowing the person to put the incident behind them.
