The University of Miami Counseling Center (UMCC) is deeply saddened by the tragedy in Las Vegas, Nevada on October 1, 2017. We recognize that this could be a very difficult time for many of our students who are from that area or know others who are from there as well. We want you to know if you or other students are experiencing distress related to this event, or if this event triggered memories of other tragedies in your life, UMCC is here to provide a safe and confidential environment to discuss this with a counselor. If support is needed, please contact us at 305-284-5511, and after-hours press Option 1 for immediate assistance to talk to a therapist.
During this time, we encourage you to reach out for support as well as extend support to others. It is important for us to stay connected and do what we can to take care of one another.
