Student Counselling Service at the Conservatorium
Breda Dee will be available every week on Thursdays in Room 4036.
Appointments can be made by calling +61 2 9660 5222 or 0434 998 630
Please note that the walk in times are 1/2 hour appointments for a first point of contact with the service.
For 'walk in' appointments, students can drop by on the day and place their initials or other identifier on the 'walk-in' time sheet outside the counselling office (Room 4036)'.
If you require the services of a counsellor on a day when the counsellor is not at the con, please utilise the services on main campus:

Support for International students is available through Counselling and Psychological Services (CAPS).

It is also a resource centre for students and their families.
