The main question we want to answer is: \* Does the VIVIM program help participants to feel less depressed and/or anxious? We will compare the VIVIM program with the usual psychological support that university counselling services offer to students. Participants will: * Be randomly assigned to either use the VIVIM program or receive usual help from university's counselling service. * Fill out online questionnaires three times: at the beginning, 10 weeks and 6 months after being assigned either the VIVIM program or usual care.
