The Student Counseling Room was established to give all students the opportunity to consult with a counselor on various issues that may arise during the course of their studies at Keio University.
Rather than struggling with problems alone, students are encouraged to visit the Counseling Room and obtain professional assistance.
Every consultation is kept confidential.

The future is still unpredictable with regard to the COVID-19 situation. Many of you may have spent New Year holidays with a sense of anxiety that remains unresolved in the restricted and unfettered lifestyle.
Stress and doubts that could normally be resolved through casual conversations with friends may pile up during the current situation of self isolation. The pain of family and other people not understanding the difficulties of university life that you are experiencing. Feeling loneliness while stuck at home for long periods. These types of stress are common difficulties for everyone this year.
The Student Counseling Room is established to give all students the opportunity to chat with a counselor on various issues that form a part of student life. When you feel stressed, frustrated or distressed, or just want to put your thoughts and feelings into perspective, we encourage you to give us a call at the Student Counseling Room.
In addition, the Student Counseling Room also hosts group activities using ZOOM (on an irregular basis). The group activities are designed for students to get ideas for stress management and maintaining your mental health. These group activities will be held in Japanese but all students are welcome to participate.
