The Counselling Service is manned by professional counsellors who are experienced in working with students of different nationalities. The goal of the Counselling Service is to help students through their obstacles so that they can complete their studies successfully and lead meaningful lives. There are 3 types of services offered at the Counselling Service: 
 

(a) Personal Counselling

If you are going through a difficult time in your life, we encourage you to connect with one of our counsellors. Life is not a bed of roses and it helps to be supported while you tide over a difficult period.

Our professional counsellors will chat with you about your concerns, deepen your understanding, and help you manage your thoughts, feelings and behaviour. Through counselling, you may feel a sense of relief which will enable you to make positive changes in your life. 

Some of the issues that students frequently raise include boy-girl relationship problems, anxiety, difficulties living in Singapore, depression, pressures from family, feeling homesick, loneliness, problems related to studies and traumatic incidents. If you are going through any of these or other difficulties, come talk to us. All information discussed is kept confidential to protect your privacy.

(b) Disability Support Service

The Disability Support Service is a service specific for students who have been diagnosed with learning, physical, medical or psychiatric difficulties by a doctor or a specialist. The aim of this service is to ensure that these students receive adequate and reasonable support through their course of study in PSB Academy. The Student Care & Guidance counsellors are available to let you know the types of support available on campus and to discuss the adjustments that are suitable for your classroom learning, assignments, tests and exams.

If you think that you may have a disability but have not received a formal diagnosis, speak to one of our counsellors about your concerns and we will guide you towards appropriate help for you.

(c) Medical Support

When a student falls ill, injured or is hospitalised, the Counsellor will follow-up with the student on:

• Hospital Visits
• Liaison between student and school staff for administrative purpose
• Assistance with issues related to coming back to class
• Emotional wellbeing of student and / or family members
