Conversational support
A supportive conversation can be about personal difficulties or something related to your studies. Sometimes it is hard to see solutions, and it can be helpful to talk to someone outside your immediate circle.
This could involve feelings of sadness, anxiety, stress, concentration difficulties, performance anxiety, loneliness, mental health issues, or anything else affecting your well-being and studies.
With us, you receive conversational support tailored to your needs. Together, we shape the conversation.
We maintain confidentiality and do not keep records. Our conversations are supportive, not therapeutic.
Do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or concerns.

Priest/Chaplaincy at the University
University is an important time in your life. It may be the first time you move away from home. You meet new friends and broaden your horizons. You develop and are shaped by new experiences and knowledge.
The student chaplains are here to listen to you and to talk about existential questions. They are there for students and employees at BTH. Everyone is welcome to talk about life.
The priests at the university are external resources.
The Church of Sweden
Priests have an absolute duty of confidentiality. Here you will find the priest on call, Church of Sweden.
