Students who are attending college for the first time must adjust to big changes such as relocating to a new place, being separated from family and friends, establishing a new social network, and coping with a new academic culture in a new environment. For many, these changes are interesting and challenging and an intrinsic part of the attraction of going to college. They can, however, also result in worry and anxiety.

DiST offers students psychological support and expert counselling. Two licensed professional counsellors in the college offer counselling to undergraduate and graduate students. Counselling is available to students who need assistance with their academic performance, emotional problems, psychiatric disorders, familial concerns, or addictions.

To improve students' academic, personal, and professional performance, the counselling department collaborates with academic departments, individual faculty members, student services, and other important departments of the college. Counselors are accessible to families during the college working time as well.
