TELUS Health Student Support

UNC is proud to launch the TELUS Health Student Support app, coming August 1! 

TELUS Health Student Support will provide students with 24/7 mental health and well-being support. This program is available at no cost to students. It complements UNC’s on-campus Counseling Center and other mental health resources.  

As part of TELUS, students will be able to: 

• Access crisis services via phone or text 24/7 from Master’s-level clinicians in English, Spanish, French, Mandarin and Cantonese.   

• Access short-term scheduled counseling sessions via phone or video.  

• Connect with other students across the country via TELUS’ online platform to give and receive support from peers. The hub is monitored for safety concerns by a mental health professional.   

TELUS counselors can support students with: 

• Adapting to new cultures;  

• Being successful in school;  

• Navigating relationships with friends and family; 

• Handling stress, anxiety, sadness and loneliness; 

• And much more. 

Anyone who is concerned about the mental health of a student—faculty, staff, parents, family or friends—will be able to call TELUS to receive after-hours mental health consultation.
