Need someone to talk with?

Sits healthcare services are a supplement to the public healthcare system. We have compiled an overview of helpful advice and support services, offering low-threshold conversations with advisors and short-term treatment with therapists. Our services are available to all students affiliated with the educational institutions we collaborate with.
