Counselling Services

Medical learners may experience a variety of personal, academic, or financial issues that can impact on their sense of well being and their studies. The Office of Learner Well-Being and Success offers a confidential counselling and referral service to undergraduate and postgraduate medical learners.

Learners who are experiencing difficulties are encouraged to email our Learner Well-Being Consultant at lwsconsultant@mun.ca or consult with staff in Learner Well-Being and Success. If we are unable to help you directly, we can also refer you to a wide range of university or community supports and services. Some of these include:

Newfoundland and Labrador Medical Association (NLMA) - Physician & Family Assistance Program
Other services available on campus
Emergency services for distressed learners

♦  stress / anxiety  ♦  school-life balance  ♦  depression  ♦  imposter thoughts & feelings  ♦  communication  ♦  relationships  ♦  medical issues  ♦  academic difficulties  ♦  career counselling  ♦  financial planning
