            - Difficulties and insecurity during studies, e.g. problems with planning and managing res

            - Difficulties with learning, concentrating, or struggling with procrastination

            Who are peer consultants?
            Peer consultants are students of the university who are familiar with the study environmen

            to offer their experience and empathy. They are not experts in the fields of psychology, p
            or any other related field. Thus, they do not provide psychotherapeutic or other professio
            services. Peer consultants undergo regular training on various topics and intervision and 

            programme managers.

            After completing the questionnaire (see link below), the programme manager will contact th

            connect them with a suitable peer consultant. The students will agree on a meeting place a
            suits them best (anywhere at Charles University or even outside the university). Then the 
            the joint cooperation is determined.
