Free Psy Services

The role of the confidential advisers is to welcome, listen to, inform and advise any member of the university community who is experiencing difficulties in connection with their work and, at their express request and in consultation with them, to intervene with the person in question or a third party (for example, a member of the hierarchy or, more generally, a resource person). This service is available to anyone working at ULB — this includes PhD candidates and PostDocs. This service is completely confidential.
