How Do I Book A Wellness Coaching Session?
Easy, email: ENGWellness@uwaterloo.ca and specify the following:
- Which department you are in – Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) or Mechanical and Mechatronics Engineering (MME)
- If you are a grad or undergrad student
- Your current academic level or program (e.g., 2A or MEng)
- A couple of sentences or brief description stating what you would like to discuss
A wellness coordinator will email you with their most recent availability. (Please remember that our operating hours are Monday-Friday, 8:30 a.m - 4:30 p.m. We are closed evenings, weekends, and holidays). If you are in need of crisis support options, please refer to the resources outlined on our Getting Help page.
What Should I Expect?
- We will collect some information such as your name, email, and year (if we don’t already have), and we may ask for some information (like if you live in residence). Rest assured, this information is for our purposes only and will be kept confidential.
- As we usually book 30-50 minute sessions, and want to use your time wisely, we will get started pretty quickly by asking you something like, “How would you like to use our time today?” or “What would you like to get out of our session?" Or “What are your goals for today?” (You get the idea).
- Sessions may follow a particular structure/format depending on the type of support you need. We like to leave things a bit open in order to support you in the most effective way possible!
Please note, we will make suggestions and referrals to other resources and services as appropriate during any of the appointment types above. If you have any additional questions, or are ready to book your session, please email us at: ENGWellness@uwaterloo.ca!
