Is it difficult to begin or finish assignments? Are you stuck with writing your master’s or bachelor’s thesis? Do you need support in managing your studies or everyday life?
UEF Student counselling and wellbeing services arranges the Focus on Studies Group for students in the autumn semester 2026. The group offers easily accessible support in tackling challenges in studying or everyday life for international bachelor’s or master’s degree students. The group is based on solution-oriented guidance and peer support. The leader of the group is trained to accommodate and support participants with possible neuropsychiatric challenges (e.g., ADHD, ADD, ASD and OCD). Participants, however, do not need a diagnosis or a referral, one’s own experience of difficulties is enough. Neuropsychiatric challenges can cause, for example, learning difficulties, challenges in attaching oneself to studies or work and problems in social interaction.
The group meets in Zoom on Mondays at 14–16 on the following days: 5.10., 12.10., 19.10., 26.10. and 2.11. The group admits a maximum of 6 students.
