Personal conflict situations<\/h3>\n

In case you are in need for professional help with personal\/private\/mental health problems, please do not hesitate to contact the Psychosocial Counselling<\/a> (PSC<\/b>), or the Psychotherapeutic Outpatient Clinic<\/a> (in German: Psychotherapeutische Ambulanz f\u00fcr Studierende = PAS<\/b>).<\/p>\n

The PSC<\/strong> is an institution of the Studentenwerk, for students of all universities in G\u00f6ttingen.<\/p>\n

The PAS<\/strong> is part of the Clinic of Psychosomatic Medicine and Psychotherapy of the University Medical Center (UMG) and serves for Students of the University of G\u00f6ttingen. In terms of content, the PAS differs from the PSC only in the way that it is also possible to treat patients with medication, as medical doctors work in the outpatient clinic<\/p>\n

Both facilities are therefore suitable for you.<\/strong> However, in times of the COVID-19 pandemic the PSC is absolutely overcrowded (several months waiting time). Thus, please contact the PAS, which guarantees quick help with, at the moment, only one week waiting time.\u00a0<\/span>
\nAll employees of PSC & PAS, therapists and medial doctors, are obliged to secrecy. The information and data you share with them are handeled confidential and will not be forwarded to third parties. Counselling is also possible anonymously (on request).<\/p>\n
