Welcome to
Student-to-Student
Peer Counseling!
We are UC Berkeley student peer counselors who provide a space for other students to share their thoughts, feelings, and difficulties.
What We Do
Berkeley Student-to-Student Peer Counseling provides free, anonymous services from fellow trained student counselors to other UC Berkeley students. We have been a student organization since 1967.
As non-professional counselors, we are able to communicate to students as peers while creating a healing environment through active listening and empathy.
All that is shared in a session remains strictly confidential unless the student poses a threat to themselves or others.
