Supporting students with emotional and psychological concerns

If a student comes to you with emotional or mental health issues, encourage them to get in touch with the Open Door Team.

Mental health policies and reports

The Open Door Team

Students should make an appointment with the Open Door Team on opendoor@york.ac.uk or 01904 432140.

Following an initial consultation with the student, we provide tailored support including:

  • Short term help for specific issues
  • Signposting and referral to other services
  • Case co-ordination
  • Counselling

Other sources of support

Students can also talk with their supervisor or college welfare team.

Further training and advice

Please contact us if you would benefit from telephone consultancy or more detailed mental health information.

We can also present to your department about aspects of the service and provide training on mental health or psychological provision.

If you have any further questions surrounding student mental health at the University, please email opendoor@york.ac.uk.
