University Transitions

Equimentus transitions provides an independent support service to students who are self-funding or family funding their university place.

The challenges students face is completely unique. Equimentus transitions offer personalised, individual and wholly bespoke student services, to match their needs. We understand the many vast, complex and specific needs of students and recognise the need for a unique approach to success.

The service is provided by highly-trained consultants who are committed to the highest levels of service and professional integrity. Our consultants are Occupational Therapists which means they are dual trained in both mental and physical health. As university educated professionals they use assessment and intervention to develop, recover or maintain the meaningful activities (or ‘occupations’) of individuals, groups or communities.

All our Occupational Therapists are highly experienced, fully insured and registered with the regulatory body, the Health Care Professions Council (HCPC).

All levels of intervention are carried out by our experienced and dual trained (in mental and physical health) clinicians, who are committed to the highest levels of service and professional integrity.

We provide immediate recommendations. Depending on the type of intervention required, we will formulate a plan that meets all needs to achieve sustainable outcomes. Our programmes will consist of regular remote support, and communication through a variety of medians for example:

Telephone, Skype, Facetime, SMS and Face to face meetings.

We aim to provide a world class service deliverable through teamwork and passion to help others achieve their optimum health and wellbeing goals.
