We’re Here for You
Whenever you need us.
Welcome to the Student Wellness Centre, IIT Bombay
Life at IIT is exciting and demanding. It is natural to experience stress, anxiety, self-doubt, or feelings of isolation.
Your mental well-being matters. The Student Wellness Centre (SWC) offers a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space—where no concern is too big or too small.
Our qualified mental health professionals understand student life and provide one-on-one counselling, group therapy, mindfulness workshops, peer support, and wellness programs designed to help you cope, grow, and thrive.
Reaching out is not a sign of weakness—it’s a step toward strength and clarity.
