Crises - whether big or small - are an inevitable part of our lives. In retrospect, these are often the situations that we have grown from or that have given our lives a new direction. But when we are in the middle of a crisis, it tends to feel helpless, overwhelming or hopeless.
With the offer of psychological counselling, I would like to support you in such unsettling situations or phases of life. This can be about very different topics:
All conversations are, of course, treated strictly confidentially. The psychological counselling is a cooperation project of the KHG with EFL Ehe-, Familien- und LebensberatungAppointments can be made at short notice.

KAAD is the scholarship organization of the German Catholic Church for postgraduates and scholars from (developing) countries in Asia, Africa, Latin America, the Near and Middle East, and Eastern and Southeastern Europe.
Through scholarships, educational events and personal and spiritual support, it promotes its scholarship holders with a view to multiplier activities in their home countries. This is done in cooperation with partner bodies and associations of former scholarship holders in these countries, with the aim of creating a (scientific) network and contributing to a holistic development that includes the religious and interreligious dimension.
As part of the so-called "Scholarship Program 2", Catholic university communities can nominate students who are already studying at a university in Germany for a scholarship.

The Cusanuswerk also offers music and artist sponsorship and supports (prospective) doctoral students.

Studying implies very different challenges: self-organisation, exams, homework, concentration, motivation - it can happen that things get stuck in one or more places.
I would like to help you tackle your problems with a view from the outside and with methods from professional coaching.

Studying is a time of change and a new start into an independent life in a new city and your own flat. Away from friends and family. Fears, insecurities, difficulties with work and learning structures, stress, contact problems, financial problems, problems in the partnership...
Maybe you just need someone to listen to you and calmly sort out what is bothering you at the moment.
Counselling is free of charge and non-denominational!
We cooperate with various counselling centres and the psychosocial counselling centre of the Cologne Student Union.
Laura Keller is available on Wednesday afternoons and Ada v. Lüninck on Monday and Thursday afternoons for direct telephone counselling, and otherwise by email.

You may also notice the many homeless people in our streets. In Cologne, there are only limited overnight accommodations for homeless people. We are therefore supporting Gemeinsam Gubbio at the Nachcafé in the current winter semester. A warm invitation to all: anyone and everyone can join in!
Interested parties can now contact Annekatrin Schumacher to get an idea of the task for themselves based on experiences and impressions from the past years.
Participation in the night café can be recognised for the church practice field within the framework of the study certificate.
The entry is possible at any time within the winter season from November to March. We are looking forward to your support !

The KHG is a place of encounter for all those who study and work at Cologne's universities - regardless of their field of study, type of university or denomination.
With our offer we would like to complement and enrich the time you have available besides studying, learning and working and at the same time create space for the realisation of your own projects, ideas, plans and intentions. Because the KHG lives from the Togetherness of peoplewho shape it.
Get to know each other, discuss, exchange: This is what the KHG wants to support. In the educational program we invite experts to talk with us about current topics; in the spiritual program we exchange views on questions of Christian faith. But also among ourselves we often stay together until late to talk about God and the world. Conviviality is very important to us: Whether we cook together, go to the museum, do sports, travel together or celebrate - we want to make it possible for students from a wide range of disciplines to meet and get to know each other. Our rooms are available to you for this purpose: as a venue for events, but also as a quiet place to write homework, to chat and snack, to work and craft, to make music and meditate.
Of course, we invite you to join in the celebration and participation at our God:Time every Thursday at 6pm. If you want to try out innovative liturgy formats, this is the place to be.
Another big area is our counselling: On the one hand, we advise you on all problems and questions that arise around your studies and university and try to find solutions together. On the other hand, we also have time for you if you simply need someone to talk to in order to get clarity in a life situation that is important to you. Just talk to us or write to us!
Last but not least, we are also there for concerns when it comes to church scholarships and sponsorship for students from all over the world.
