How To Make An Appointment:  

During the Summer months, Student Counselling & Development operates with reduced staff, so counselling sessions are limited. We can offer an initial assessment to review your needs and see how we can support you. 

Registration for routine appointments re-opens in August for the new semester. Our clinical service resumes fully in September, when all staff return for the new academic year. Please read the Appointment Information section below and then complete our intake form to join our summer waiting list and we will allocate an appointment to you when available.

Appointment Information:

SCD offers two counselling options to students, in-person and online. Appointment In-Person: Our reception is located on the ground floor of 3 Brighton Villas, Western Road (Map). Please go to the Reception Office to check in. Your counsellor will collect you from the waiting room at the scheduled time. Appointment Online: If you choose an online appointment, you will be sent instructions on using Microsoft Teams when your appointment is scheduled. Details are also available in conditions of service use.

You must be in the Republic of Ireland to avail of an appointment. If you have any questions about counselling, please go to counselling and crisis support information or you can email us at counselling@ucc.ie Students are asked to use their Umail account when contacting SCD. Sensitive information should not be included in emails.
