Do you need psychological support? On this page you will find the listening services offered by the Campus Medical and Social Care Centre, as well as those available in the Paris region or online, to help students and anyone else in need to get through difficult times and feel better again.
According to a study of over 45,000 students by the Observatiore de la Vie Etudiante (OVE), 31% of them showed signs of psychological distress during the first lockdown in Spring 2020. More than ever before, the current situation threatens mental health, especially for students, so there is a greater need for psychological support. This page lists certain resources that can be accessed on Campus but is by no means comprehensive.
