Welcome to Student Counselling and Development (SCD)


We aim to embed our core values of compassion, human connection, empowerment, and professionalism in everything we do.

We offer several services to UFS students to help them navigate life challenges and to promote mental health.


Mental Health Services

We offer a variety of services to students, including:

  • Developmental, mental health workshops and webinars such as coping with stress, emotional intelligence, self-care, building healthy relationships, and relaxation.
  • Extended mental health programmes such as the Self-Esteem project, the Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT) programme, and the Career Development Project (CDP).
  • The UFS Student Mental Health Careline, available 24/7, has zero-call costs that provide confidential telephonic counselling.
  • Individual counselling.

We provide students with various psycho-educational and preventative tools and resources available on our website and upon request.
