Guidance & Counseling

Mwenge Catholic University Health Centre
Introduction
Guidance and Counseling services are both developmental in approach and inclusive in nature. The services are “one-on-one,” “face-to-face,” and “open-ended” problem solution within which one with professional assistance can offload one’s fears, frustrations, confusion, and concerns in confidence and trust ways. Guidance and Counseling services are intended to help all students and their assistants realize their full potential regardless of educational, physical, social, emotional, professional, and worldwide societal changes. It is due to this awareness that Mwenge Catholic University (MWECAU) has established Guidance and Counseling Unit to fill the gap and increase opportunities for success in the lives of all its community members, including students, faculty and staff. -
