Counseling Services

Supporting Your Mental Health Journey at IE University

IE University’s counseling services care for students’ mental health and psychological growth. We provide a safe and confidential environment where students receive professional psychological support tailored to their unique journey through academia.

What we offer:

Personalized one-on-one sessions, alongside informative talks and workshops on topics relevant to university student life. Our one-on-one services include:

Guidance Counseling: Unlimited access to in-house psychological guidance and emotional support for issues such as homesickness, motivation, grief, anxiety, relationships, or fear of public speaking. There is nothing too big or too small.
Mental Health Counseling: Up to eight annual sessions with a clinical psychologist to help you navigate unexpected mental health difficulties and psychological trauma.

Students can access both services throughout the academic year. Our guidance counselors are available to recommend the most suitable support for your unique situation. If you already have a mental health condition and wish to continue your long-term treatment in Spain, we can provide you with a list of trusted psychologists and psychiatrists.

How to access counseling services:

To schedule a session, email Counseling.IEU@ie.edu or complete this form. You will receive a prompt reply, typically within the next week.

SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS

IE University offers special accommodations for students with special educational needs (SEN) who have been formally diagnosed by a healthcare professional in Spain or their home countries. SEN comprise learning disorders, cognitive and emotional difficulties, and sensory and physical disabilities that hinder a student’s learning and academic performance. The type and range of available accommodations at IE University may vary from those that students received in their high school or previous academic institution.

To request special accommodations, IE University students fill out a confidential online form by indicating their medical conditions and uploading the relevant documents. If the originals are not in English or Spanish, they need to be officially translated into these languages by a certified or sworn translator prior to their submission.
