We have two study psychologists at JAMK. Study psychologists guide and support JAMK degree students in issues related to learning, motivation and coping.
You can contact them in matters related to issues that impede your studies, such as stress, performance anxiety, anxiety, depression or a stressful life situation. You can also plan personal study arrangements together with the study psychologist concerning any learning difficulties you may have. The aim of the confidential discussions is to find solutions to problems arising from studies, different life situations and relationships. In accordance with the needs, there can be from one to five meetings with the study psychologist. The service is free of charge for students.
The study psychologist is an authorised health care professional, whose competencies include questions related to learning, motivation and mental health. The service is a part of the guidance offered at JAMK. The study psychologist closely cooperates with the student health services of the City of Jyväskylä and refers students to other health care services, when necessary. The aim is to offer students a support network in which they find the individual services best supporting their studies.
