• If you are registered as a student of Leiden University, you can use the services of the student psychologists.
• Also take a look on your faculty or study programme tab to see if they offer additional services.

The student psychologists can help with both study-related and personal problems. During your first consultation, you will together look into the best course of action for your situation. In some cases, that might be a workshop or training course in study skills or personal development. In other cases, the psychologist might offer you short-term individual guidance.

Not for specialised or long-term help

The student psychologist will not make a diagnosis nor offer therapy for serious psychological or psychiatric problems. If you require specialised or long-term help, please contact your GP to arrange a referral.

Important: make one appointment only!

If you need subsequent appointments, the student psychologist will discuss this with you during your first consultation.

How to make an appointment

• Select an appointment type. There are three types of appointment: online, in-person in Leiden, and in-person in The Hague.
• If the system gives you the option, select a resource (staff member).
  Note: if you skip step 1 and (if prompted) step 2, you won’t be able to see available slots!  
• Search in the calendar for an available slot. The system only shows availability for the coming three weeks.
• Can’t find a slot? Try again later. New slots are added every day and sometimes there are cancellations.

Does the appointment system not load or you can’t click to the next month? Open the appointment system in a new window.
