Miami students, faculty, and staff: Take the first step on your mental health and well-being journey to get the resources and support systems that will help you feel and perform your best. Your mental health matters to us, and we are here to help.

Mental Health and Well-Being Continuum

We recognize that mental health is a dynamic aspect of your overall well-being, requiring different levels of support at different times. We use a stepped care approach to meet you where you are and help you thrive. Whether you’re proactively maintaining your mental wellness, feeling overwhelmed, or needing urgent support, we are here to connect you with the resources you need.

A strong foundation starts with understanding. Learn more about mental health through articles, videos, and more.

Find help at your own pace. Browse self-help tools, apps, take an assessment, and more.

Join workshops, student orgs, events, support groups to share experiences and build community.

Connect with counseling, consultation, or mentors when you need individualized support.
