As Üsküdar University Psychological Counseling Unit, we try to help Üsküdar University members (active students and staff) mentally, emotionally, socially and academically.

In addition to these services, as a unit, we also provide preventive/protective, consultation and, if necessary, interventional counseling and guidance services for psychological problems.

  • Counselling unit service is free.
  • The unit works by appointment. You can arrange your appointment with your counsellor on a suitable day and determined time.
  • Counselling takes 45-50 minutes on average.
  • The usefulness of counselling depends on the consistent participation and cooperation of the person applying to the unit.
  • In busy periods, the appointment process may take 2 weeks.
  • Students who want to benefit from NP Group Psychiatry services at a discount should make an appointment with the Psychological Counselling Unit of Üsküdar University. If the referral process is deemed appropriate after the preliminary interview of our expert psychologists, our students will be able to benefit from the discounts we provide.
