In the course of your studies, situations can sometimes arise in which you feel particularly stressed or even overwhelmed. In these situations it is good to get support!
With the psychosocial student counselling service, TU Wien has created a special service for TU students to help them cope with stressful situations and to strengthen their own abilities to deal with current and future challenges and problems.
Psychological consultation hour (Internal)
Individual Counseling (External)
The Psychological Consultation Hour is an internal TU service for students. It provides a one-on-one setting where students can discuss study-related or personal challenges with a clinical psychologist and work together to find solutions.
Each student can book up to three counseling sessions of 50 minutes per calendar year.

If you're already certain that therapy would be more beneficial than short counseling sessions, you can contact the ÖH Helpline, opens an external URL in a new window. They offer free therapy referral sessions for students, with the goal of finding you a spot quickly.
Additionally, you’ll find helpful information in the next section on finding therapy placements.
Psychotherapy covered by health insurance: Some freelance psychotherapists offer fully covered therapy sessions through health insurance. However, these insurance-covered spots are limited and often come with long waiting times. A medical confirmation of the necessity of psychotherapy is required.
Private therapists (Wahltherapeut_innen): If you choose a private therapist, you can apply for a reimbursement. A diagnosed mental disorder is required. The amount of reimbursement varies depending on the insurance provider:
Psychotherapists in training under supervision: These therapists are in the final stage of their training and often offer lower rates. They are already qualified to work with clients but are closely supervised by senior therapists.
Social rates: Some psychotherapists offer social rates to support individuals with low income.
ÖH Psychotherapy Fund: The Austrian National Union of Students (ÖH) provides a psychotherapy fund that allows students to apply for financial support for therapy costs. Requirements include proof of therapy necessity and confirmation that health insurance covers part of the costs or that a social rate has been agreed upon. The maximum support is €1,500.
You can search for therapists through online platforms like PsyOnline.at, opens an external URL in a new window or the Vienna Association for Psychotherapy., opens an external URL in a new window
