Counseling

At times we all need someone to turn to for advice, e.g. in case of difficult situations among colleagues or in the event of conflicts with our supervisors or teachers or with our fellow students. Even if you simply have the feeling that you cannot stand up to all the demands you have to cope with, we will always have a sympathetic ear for you: Are there any conflicts that you cannot resolve yourself? The various counseling services at the university will be happy to offer you advice and support.
