VIT Counselling and Wellbeing Services: Support Beyond the Classroom

Transitioning into student life at VIT brings new opportunities, experiences, and challenges. As exciting as this is, the anxieties of starting from scratch may become overwhelming. It is perfectly normal to feel this way.

VIT’s dedicated Welfare Counselling Services provide confidential and professional support to assist you in navigating personal, academic, and social challenges. Our team is dedicated to fostering a secure environment where you can express your concerns and obtain personalised guidance suited to your needs.

What kind of support is available?

VIT’s staff of expert counsellors recognises that each student experiences unique emotions; therefore, our counselling services are tailored to provide individualised support in various aspects of student life:

Adjusting to Life in Australia:

Moving to a new country presents many uncertainties. Navigating through such a big change alone may seem overwhelming. Seeking guidance from a counsellor may help you make this transition confidently. We’re on this journey with you!

Academic Stress:

It’s easy to feel overburdened by coursework, missed deadlines, and oncoming exams. Our counsellors are here to help you take control with effective time management, healthier study habits, and realistic academic goals so you can stay on track and excel.

Emotional Wellbeing:

Many students find it difficult to balance academics, work, and personal life alone, often leading to feelings of anxiety, frustration, fear, and anger. But that’s the point—you don’t have to do it alone! Our counsellors prioritise creating a safe, supportive space for you to talk openly and discover ways to improve your well-being.

Why talk to a counsellor?

At VIT, we encourage our students to TALK. You don’t have to be in crisis to reach out to us. In fact, students have found that talking to someone at the onset of a challenge makes it easier to navigate and resolve it. Even a single session with our counsellors can offer a new perspective, ease your worries, and help you move forward.
