Crisis Information

Since I am only providing Telehealth service, I will be providing out-patient mental health care. In case of emergency, crisis care or after-hours emergency care will need to be found at facilities that provide critical care. If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis and you need help, please contact any of the following crisis hotlines. If you or another person is in immediate danger, you should call 911 for emergency services immediately.

988 IS A MENTAL HEALTH NUMBER TO CALL IN CRISIS.

988 will bring mental health resources to Americans by replacing the 10-digit number of the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline established in 2005. The 10-digit number will still be active; 988 is just a much-needed update that facilitates getting help during a mental health crisis.
