Psychological services for students

Starting in the summer semester of 2025, the psychological counseling service will offer individual counseling sessions with the two psychologists Marlene Carl (M.Sc.) and Franziska Sagner (M.Sc.). This service is available to students of UdK who:

 … are experiencing psychological stress in the course of their studies,

… are seeking support in coping with personal or study-related challenges,

… are facing emotional imbalance,

… or who are looking for a space to sort through their thoughts, reflect, and gain clarity

In a focused counseling session (approx. 45 minutes), we support you in reducing stress and developing new perspectives along with initial steps for action. If needed, we also give advice on suitable external follow-up support services.
Feel free to contact us via email to schedule a counseling appointment (psychologische.beratung_ @udk-berlin.de).

All counseling services are confidential and free of charge, and are available to all students of the UdK.
