Counselling & Guidance

Counselling Discription

ISDM is committed to providing a nurturing and compassionate space for learning and the well-being of students by creating an environment where everyone can flourish with their individual, cultural and social diversities. We have an empathetic and effective counselling support mechanism emphasising self-awareness, self-reflection, self-acceptance and self-management.

We aim to enable individuals to build their capability to respond to adverse circumstances and bounce back through sustained practice and efforts to achieve a state of well-being.

The counselling program is a confidential process and ISDM offers the support of an in-house counsellor through in-person interactions or a telephonic engagement.
