Christmas with the UW Psychological Counselling Centre
Christmas is generally considerd a time of peace, helping eachother, love, and joy… But not for everyone. Especially for international students, spending the holidays in a new environment, surrounded by a new culture and people, far away from home and family can take its toll, especially with the stress of holiday preparations.
Luckily, the psychologists from the UW Psychological Counselling Centre (CPP) will be available for UW students and employees also around Christmas time.
Working hours during the holidays
During the Christmas holiday, Welcome Point will be closed from the 23rd of December 2019 until January 1st 2020. If you need help during that time, feel free to contact us via Facebook or email. You are welcome to visit our office again starting January 2nd 2020!
