What does a person need to feel complete? Sometimes, all it takes is someone who listens, understands, and helps uncover one’s inner potential. Guided by this idea, a Psychological and Educational Counseling Center has been established at the YSU Ijevan Branch. Its core mission is to help individuals find inner balance, overcome psychological challenges, and live a harmonious life.

The center is unique in its format within the Tavush region, offering knowledge-based psychological services for children, adults, families, and organizations. Visitors can receive individual counseling as well as participate in educational and personal development programs.

Beyond counseling, the center also serves as a practical training platform for psychologists and psychology students, providing opportunities to deepen theoretical knowledge and gain real-life experience through workshops and research projects.

At the heart of the center lies the concept of psychological well-being. YSU Ijevan Branch aims to foster a culture of psychological support in Tavush and promote the development of emotional intelligence. This center represents a path toward self-awareness, mutual understanding, and inner harmony — paving the way for a more balanced and mindful society.
