About Us

The North-South University-Student Counseling Center (NSU-SCC), under the Office of the Pro Vice-Chancellor, functions under the stewardship of the Proctor.

It is a support system for the students of the University and addresses their emotional well-being. It serves as a primary mental health care unit for the students, faculty members, and staff of the University. The center offers various therapeutic approaches and advice for further referrals on mental health issues. It has four counselors specializing in Counseling, Clinical, and Educational Psychology. It has no jurisdiction over the academic and administrative affairs of the University.

For appointments, current students can self-refer or be referred by Faculty, family, and other administrative staff of NSU by mailing requests to counseling.center@northsouth.edu with full name, NSU ID, NSU email, and a valid phone number of the client, or the client can have a walk-in session if there is available slot.

The NSU-SCC offers one-to-one or group sessions for the students and, if necessary, with related persons. It has 4 counselors, specialising in Psychosocial, Counseling, and Clinical Psychology.

The counselors and students/clients must maintain confidentiality. However, in situations such as suicide, sexual harassment, and drug abuse, SCC has to protect the liability of the university, and act accordingly.
