Make an Appointment

Getting Started
The UMB Student Counseling Center works on an appointment basis. Call (410) 328-8404 or stop by the HS/HSL Library at 601 W. Lombard St., Suite 440. When leaving a message, please indicate a way you can be reached during normal business hours to schedule your initial appointment.

Hours
Monday - Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and 2 evenings a week until 7:00 p.m. by appointment only.

First Appointment
Your first appointment will usually occur within one to two weeks of the initial phone call. If you need immediate assistance, please alert us. Students who need to see the Psychiatrist for medication evaluation or monitoring must first schedule an intake appointment with a Counselor.

Late Cancellations and No-Shows
In general, students are eligible to receive up to 6 counseling sessions per semester and up to 12 sessions per academic year. However, same-day cancellations and no-shows count against your allocated number of sessions.

After Hours
Messages left on the voice mail outside of normal working hours (Monday through Friday 8:30 a.m.- 5:00 p.m.) are returned the next business day. For mental health emergencies, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. If you need assistance after hours, call Student and Employee Health at 410-328-8792. Voice mail is activated during the lunch hour and messages are promptly returned afterward. If urgent matters arise during that time, or if you are calling to make an administrative referral, you may press 0 for assistance from a Counselor.
