About The Counselling Centre

The University of Port Harcourt Counselling Centre (UPCC) provides counselling services to members of the University community.

You are welcome to the University of Port Harcourt Counselling Centre (UPCC) virtual platform on which counselling sessions can be carried out where and when it is not possible physically.

This platform is to enable clients to easily have secure access to a Counsellor in the Centre, and a Counsellor can reach out to the client(s) in need. All information and counselling session(s) will be confidential. We are available for you.

The questions below are for purposes of awareness to let us know that counselling is for everyone. We wish to state that these questions do not reflect or represent counselling session(s) with any particular client.
