Lee Wan Hui Caitlyn from the University Counselling Centre (NTU)
UWO provides professional and holistic services to meet the wellbeing needs of NTU students and employees so as to enhance their personal growth and development through the provision of professional counselling through the University Counselling Centre (UCC), case management support, critical incident management and policies and partnerships that support student wellbeing.
Caitlyn is currently a counsellor at the University Counselling Centre (UCC). She did her undergraduate studies at NTU and then her postgraduate studies in NIE and now she works in NTU; it would seem that NTU cannot “get rid” of her! She is always keen to share with others about what has been personally useful in her own life, and is also equally keen to hear about what has been helpful for others in their lives.
