Student Counselling Service

About the counselling service

The counselling service aims to enable students to cope more effectively with any personal or study difficulties that may be affecting them while at LSE. There are nine professionally qualified and experienced counsellors in the service, and between us we offer about 100 sessions of counselling each week. The Service is a part of the Teaching and Learning Centre.

All counselling sessions need to be booked in advance - please read the information given on Making an Appointment. Students may seek assistance with a wide range of Common Problems. Please feel free to download our leaflet here.

There are numerous resources for self-help and advice from different university websites available through www.student.counselling.co.uk. The Counselling Service has produced a handout on Stress Management Techniques which is freely available for download. If you want help with learning about relaxation and breathing techniques, you can listen to and download MP3 files here.

Many students find a great deal of practical assistance in the LSE Learning World website, which has articles, materials, guidance and videos dealing with a wide range of study skills, including giving presentations, making notes, preparing and writing essays, revision, exam preparation and dissertations. Materials from recent workshops run by the Counselling Service are also available for download from the section on Groups and workshops, including powerpoints and video captures.
