What's Happening
Health & Counselling is an active part of the university community. In addition to services and supports, we host many events, workshops, groups, and courses for graduate and undergraduate students. We also work closely with student-led groups and participate in programming related to supporting student well-being.
What's Happening:
Many concerns are best resolved with the support of a community or group. View options you can self-register for, or see what's being offered. Sometimes groups will be suggested after attending a counselling session. Learn more

Sometimes the stresses of daily life seem too much to handle. While self-care can help with reducing the effects of stress, horticulture therapy (garden therapy) activities offer a fun and comforting way to achieve a similar outcome. We invite IBPOC persons to join us for our first four weeks of garden therapy, focused on planting, from March 25th - April 22nd 2022. Learn more.
Join us on Thursday afternoons for an hour of conversation and movement. We’ll start each session with a mini-talk or presentation about an important health topic and then journey together around Burnaby campus to get our heart pumping and minds flowing! All are welcome. Learn more.
