Activities with the Student Health Centre
At the Student Health Centre, we offer support groups and programmes about different topics related to student health. All the activities are free of charge and have been developed in order to support students who have study-related difficulties.
Group activities
The Student Health Centre offers different group activities where you can learn more about a specific problem area and get advice about how to deal with it in your daily student life. Meeting other students with similar experiences is often very helpful.
This course is designed for those who experience discomfort and fear in oral situations, such as presenting group work, papers or seminars. You are not alone; many people feel uneasy when speaking in front of a group. With us, you will have the opportunity to practice speaking in a smaller, supportive context.
The course is conducted in English and consists of five sessions. To gain the most benefit, it is recommended that you attend all sessions.
Day: Tuesdays
Dates: 1/4, 8/4, 15/4, 22/4, 29/4
Time: 14:30–16:00
Place: Student Health Centre, Sandgatan 3, Lund
Please note: The course 'Dare to speak' is fully booked and therefore closed for registration.

This is a group treatment influenced by a metacognitive perspective for students who want to deal with recurring negative thoughts, worry and rumination. Worry and rumination often cause symptoms such as anxiety and depression.
In this group, you will learn new strategies for dealing with worry and rumination and gain a better understanding of your problems and the ability to deal with them. The group requires attendance at all sessions and the ability to complete tasks between sessions.

Worried about how to cope with the winter darkness? Afraid that it will affect your mood and ability to study? In that case, this activity is for you.

Activities with an individual contact
In addition to group activities, the Student Health Centre also offers individual interventions where, with the support of a professional, you go through a certain problem area and how you can deal with it.
For students who feel that their ability to study and their quality of life is affected, we offer internet-based support according to CBT (cognitive behavioural therapy) for stress and anxiety. With the help of a programme containing various tools, you will be helped to identify what you can change and how to do it. The treatment programmes are scientifically proven and evaluated.
The treatment is internet-based and lasts for five to eight weeks and requires that you set aside about one hour per week. Once a week, a professional from the Student Health Centre will access what you have worked on during the week and provide feedback through the treatment platform.
To start an internet-based CBT treatment, please book an initial consultation with a counsellor:
This programme is designed to help you review your drinking habits and gain a better understanding of how your body and brain react to alcohol. You will also learn new techniques to better control your alcohol intake.
The Student Health Centre also offers support to those who have grown up in an environment where problem drinking has occurred, perhaps with a parent or other close relative.
If you are interested in talking about alcohol and alcohol habits, book an initial consultation:
