What the students say … • I really appreciated the confidentiality and privacy with which everything was dealt with. The staff that dealt with me were professional and understanding, but not patronising or overly-sympathetic, which helped me to feel comfortable about discussing difficult issues. • ‘Even though I decided not to go back for further sessions, I felt that my one therapeutic consultation gave me the outlet I needed to just talk to someone.’ • I was pleasantly surprised to see that just having two sessions made a lot of difference in handling my issues
