Support and wellbeing for students

Vitae’s student counselling services support your tertiary institution by helping students manage stress, mental health challenges and personal or study issues. We have a strong history supporting learners who are over 17 years old (or emancipated youth), and we’ve seen that happy students are more engaged, perform better academically and are more likely to stay enrolled.

Our nationwide team includes professional counsellors and trauma practitioners experienced in student wellbeing.
