Counsellor talking with patient

Access counselling services

If you’re struggling with the transition to university life, there’s always somebody you can talk to for support.

Where to find counselling services

Student life can sometimes be tough.

At La Trobe College Australia, we recognise that personal, interpersonal and environmental factors can impact learning.

Counselling provides students with a safe place to creatively explore and address any problem that might be affecting their studies. Common concerns include transition to life in Australia, relationship difficulties, loss of motivation for studying, questions of identity and self-esteem, depression and anxiety, coping with disabilities or dealing with grief or loss.

Glenn is the La Trobe College Australia student counsellor, he considers it a privilege to assist students seeking support regarding any difficulties. Glenn prioritises building a positive relationship with students to provide an encouraging and comfortable space. He draws on several approaches, techniques and strategies to benefit students.

For any personal issues, mental health and wellbeing issues, family issues or academic related stress please make an appointment through:

Counselling sessions are confidential and free of charge for all currently enrolled LTCA students.
