Are you okay?
A simple question can lead to hard answers. We understand that times can be difficult for students. We also want to let you know that you are not alone!
If something has happened to you, need somebody to talk to or you are feeling down, you can reach out to our confidential advisors Manon or Djurre or any representative of the board.
For a phone number, check the WhatsApp group chat or talk to Manon at training.
Confidential Advisor - Manon
Hii! My name is Manon and I’m doing the master Mental Health at Maastricht University. This year will be my fourth year as a member of HEEP, in which I got to do two amazing board years. This year, I will fulfill the role of Confidential Advisor. This means that I will be there for anyone who experienced something they want to talk about. Whether this happened during practice or a HEEP activity or in private, I will be there to listen to you and together we can figure out what you want and/or need in this situation. You can also reach out to me if you just feel like talking, to get something off your chest or relieve some stress. I know that some things can be difficult or scary to talk about, but know that everything that we discuss is one hundred percent confidential and I will help you in the best way I can, so everyone can enjoy their time at HEEP to the fullest!
You can talk to me at any time during training or you can shoot me a message!
Confidential Advisor - Djurre
Hi! I am Djurre but a lot of people call me Dj. I am almost graduating from the study communication and multimedia design and it is my third year at HEEP. My goal as a confidential advisor is to create a space where people feel safe to tell me about experiences that they feel were not okay. This can be situations that happen during training, activities or in private. No matter how big or small you think the situation is, feel free to reach out to me and everything that you tell me is 100% confidential and together we will look at the best solution that you feel most comfortable with. So don’t hesitate to reach out to me if you feel like you need someone to talk to, this can be during training or send me a text message, choose the way you feel most comfortable with to reach out to me!
For a phone number, check the WhatsApp group chat or talk to Djurre at training.
