Safe Space Conversation with UA Counseling Center

Join us for a Safe Space Conversation facilitated by the University of Alabama Counseling Center and Graduate School—a supportive, judgment-free environment where graduate students can engage in open dialogue around mental wellness, academic stress, identity, and personal development. This workshop is designed to foster emotional safety, mutual respect, and community connection among participants.

Whether you’re navigating the challenges of graduate school, exploring issues related to identity and belonging, or simply looking for a space to feel heard, this session offers a chance to reflect, share, and listen. Trained counseling staff will guide the conversation and provide helpful insights and resources, but the emphasis is on peer-to-peer discussion in a welcoming, confidential setting.

And yes, food will be provided! Nourish your body and mind while connecting with others in a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere.
