The Counselor of Uganda Martyrs University, Ms. Clare Ahimbisibwe, has urged UMU students to seek advice from her office and the school administration while in an exclusive interview with UMU Spotlight.

In her words, “a councilor is there to create relationship, analyze situation and give warmth to her clients”. Her role in the University among others is to meet students with their parents, creating good relationship between the students and the school administration, lecturers, and student leaders among others.

She however pointed out some challenges facing students such as their failure to have full information about her office, client’s failures to complete sessions before reaching the climax. She also advises the students to always visit her office since the services are free unlike other universities where they will need to pay before accessing the same services.
Ms. Ahimbisibwe further appealed to students to avoid distancing themselves from the authority, thus advising them to visit her office frequently for counseling.

As a counselor and parent in the University, Ms. Clare plans to carryout educative programs next semester:  some of which include  communications via emails, training peer counselors that will work together to reach their fellow students. She requests leaders and students to encourage one another so as to overcome their challenges.
