As we approach the end of the semester, remember, you are enough just as you are. Particularly during stressful times, it’s important to continue taking care of yourself and taking breaks when needed.
Here are some ways to support your mental wellbeing.
Meet virtually with a counselor through Uwill.
UHS Mental Health Services partnered with Uwill to offer every UW-Madison student access to free, flexible virtual counseling. Sign up for your account with your wisc.edu email and automatically get three sessions. Sessions are typically available within 24 hours, including nights and weekends. You can sign up anytime–including over the winter break.
Drop in with a UHS counselor at Let’s Talk.
Let’s Talk is an informal, confidential one-on-one consultation with a UHS counselor. No topic is off-limits. Let’s Talk sessions are offered virtually and in-person through December 15. No appointment required.
