Your contact persons for special requests

• Liaison lecturer

   

  Overwhelmed or frustrated? Exam nerves or psychological problems? Studying not only offers opportunities and possibilities, but also demands much of you. We are a very informal department and we want everyone to feel comfortable with us. Please talk to us if you have concerns, needs, fears or problems, we will all listen to you.

  
  If you do not know whom to contact, in addition to your own lecturer, our liaison lecturer Prof. Dr. Arne Berger is a good first point of contact.

   

• Psychosocial counseling

  Studying not only offers opportunities and possibilities, but also demands much of you. Study difficulties, personal problems or psychological problems are not uncommon. In Germany, more than a quarter of the adult population is affected by a mental illness each year.

  Counseling can bring relief and some distance from an entrenched situation. It can free you to look for new possibilities and help you find concrete answers.

  
  Of course, you are also welcome if you do not really know what the problem is. Maybe you are just looking for someone to listen and help you "sort out" your thoughts.
  
  At the Studentenwerk (Student Services) Halle, Mr. Jeschke is the contact person for psychosocial counseling. You can easily book appointments online. https://studentenwerk-halle.de/beratung-soziales/psychosoziale-beratung/beratungsangebote

  
  At Anhalt University, Dr. Elke Eckhardt offers psychological counseling for students.You can register by e-mail.
