STUDENT COUNSELLING, HEALTH & WELL-BEING IS HERE FOR YOU
Hello from Student Counselling, Health & Well-being (SCHW)! We are a department in the Division of Students that supports the mental health and well-being of students at York University.
We wanted to take a moment to let you know about the FREE services and supports we offer.
Peer-led Workshops
Our team of peer health educators host workshops on a variety of well-being topics including Mental Health 101, Nutrition Basics, Sleep for Better Grades, Healthier Coping Strategies, Self-Care, and much more. To see what is offered and to sign-up for a workshop,
take a look here: https://counselling.students.yorku.ca/workshops
Individual Counselling
SCHW offers same-day and appointment-based counselling in a safe and non-judgemental space. University life can be
challenging, and our team of counsellors are here to help you feel heard and understood. Simply book online for our walk-in services here.
The online booking system opens every morning at 8:45 a.m. EST for same-day booking. Please check back in the system throughout the day. Spots may open as other students cancel. Student preferences regarding counsellor identities (e.g. BIPOC, LGBTQ2S+, etc.)
will be considered for ongoing counselling/short-term therapy. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us, our services are confidential and no problem is too small. We are here for you!
Group Support
Some students may prefer to meet with peers for encouragement and support rather than – or in addition to – meeting
with a counsellor one-to-one. If group support is something that interests you, you’re in luck! SCHW will be offering the following groups (all of which are facilitated or co-facilitated by counsellors) during 2022:
To learn more about each group and/or how to connect, please visit:

Suicide Prevention & Awareness Certification
SCHW is continuing to offer licences for ‘LivingWorks Start’ to the York U community. In just one hour online, LivingWorks Start teaches trainees to recognize when someone is thinking about suicide and connect them to help and support. We will be giving out licences every month, so add your name here.
Note: The prompt will ask you to sign-in. Please sign-in with your entire York U Passport York credentials, e.g. [log in to unmask]. *However, if you have an email ending @my.yorku.ca, please replace that with @yorku.ca to access the application. Otherwise, you will receive an error message. This application is open to all students, faculty, and staff members.
