Courses offered by the psychosocial counselling of Göttingen university (summer semester 2025)
Together, many things are easier! That’s why the Psychosocial Counselling (PSB) offers a number of courses and groups – mostly held in German – on topics related to everyday student life. A fee of 20,-€ is charged for the courses, which are held by external lecturers. The PSB offers the following courses/groups at regular intervals:
In English:
• CBT techniques for combatting anxiety
• International Coaching Group
In German:
• Final-year coaching
• Mindfulness
• Motivation and time management
• Playing to become braver
• Relaxation
• Strengthening resources – consciously shaping my life
• Strengthening the self – self-assertion
• Overcoming Test anxiety
• Working more effectively
International Coaching Group in English (for master and PhD students):
Completing a doctoral or master’s degree requires a high level of self-discipline, good organizational skills and independent work over a long period. Such work conditions, in addition to stressors associated with being an international student can often result in feelings of self-doubt or overload with work and expectations. Support within the framework of a coaching-group offers one way to increase resilience: the opportunity to connect with peers and share concerns, you can further develop skills necessary for your work and self-care, and you can increase confidence as you navigate your academic journey in Göttingen.
The new group will start 27 August 2025 (six sessions, Wednesdays, 17:00-18:30 h).
