The University of Leeds clinic is a service developed by the Leeds NHS Primary Care Trust in collaboration with the Student Counselling Centre and is run by NHS staff. It is open to all students of The University of Leeds; you don't need to be referred by another health professional (e.g. GP), and is run on Wednesday afternoons.
PMHCT clinics are based on guided self help, which enables you to learn new skills and tools for coping with common mental health problems such as:-
You can access 1-2-1 guided self help appointments with a trained staff member. The self help sessions are usually 30 minutes in length and you can receive up to eight. Staff will collaborate with you to develop practical techniques that will allow you to positively change your thinking, feelings and behaviours. You will be supported whilst practicing these new tools outside of the self help session. All self help sessions are strictly confidential except in exceptional circumstances, which would be discussed with you in your initial session. During the clinic, staff will be available for advice and guidance on using the materials and can also direct you towards University services or other services in the Leeds area. 1-2-1 sessions are available on Wednesdays from 13:00 to 16:30 during term time and vacations.
