Tuesday, 26 October 2021 Psychological support at UP

During the epidemic we have found ourselves in an unpredictable situation. We are largely cut off from normal life and we can feel scared, sad, confused, angry, unmotivated, stressed, lonely or to feel a loss of control. These kinds of reactions are understandable in present circumstances.

Within the psychological support of UP, qualified psychologists offer a relief conversation to students and employees in the form of 1-2meetings. If necessary, they suggest and direct you to further sources of assistance.

Write to us at the e-mail address psiholoska.podpora@upr.si and briefly describe what problems you are facing. Together we will arrange for an individual conversation live or via videoconference.

If you feel severe mental distress or have suicidal thoughts, contact your personal doctor or call 112 - Information Center (for immediate emergency assistance).
