Mental Health Mentoring
Compassionate support to help you thrive — academically and personally.
University is a time of growth, independence, and new experiences. While it can be exciting and rewarding, it's also natural to face challenges along the way.
Whether it's managing stress, staying motivated, or navigating social life, you don't have to do it alone. Our mentoring support is here to help you make the most of your university experience — academically, emotionally, and socially.
Support that meets you where you are
We work with a diverse range of students, including those navigating mental health conditions, those on the autistic spectrum, and anyone who would benefit from structured, compassionate, one-to-one support.
Our experienced team offers more than just advice. We build a trusted space where you can reflect, refocus, and take practical steps forward — with encouragement every step of the way.
What we can work on together
Every mentoring journey is unique. Based on your goals, needs, and pace, we can focus on:
- Navigating personal or pastoral concerns that may be causing stress or anxiety
- Boosting motivation and maintaining morale through ups and downs
- Growing confidence and self-esteem — in both academic and social settings
- Developing emotional awareness and wellbeing strategies that work for you
- Enhancing communication and social interaction skills
Creating practical, tailored action plans for:
- Organisation
- Time management
- Focus and motivation
- Planning and problem-solving
Whether you're facing a specific issue or simply want space to reflect and grow, we're here to support you in a way that feels meaningful and manageable.
Qualified mentors, flexible support
All of our mentors are experienced mental health professionals. They hold recognised qualifications and are members of relevant professional bodies. But just as important as their credentials is their approach — calm, person-centred, and genuinely supportive.
- Sessions are offered online, in a confidential and flexible format
- Most sessions last between one to two hours
- We adapt to your preferences, schedule, and DSA support allocation
If you're unsure whether mentoring is right for you, just reach out. We'll talk it through with care and no pressure.
"I have just finished my last session with my mentor and I can't thank her enough for all the help and the hard work she put into it. My mentor is amazing at bringing the best out of people and in motivating. She is very flexible and adaptable to fit the mood or situation I was in. She made a difference and gave me the very much needed space to express my thoughts and worries — and all the practical advice along the way. But what's really helped is that 'push forward' that I needed."
