Emergencies

A list of resources and instructions if you are having an emergency.

Please don't wait to hear back from someone if you feel like you're having a mental health crisis.


IF YOU NEED HELP NOW

I check voicemail regularly and typically return phone calls within 24 hours for messages left on Mondays through Fridays. However, if you feel like you cannot wait to have your call returned and need to speak to someone right away, please call the 24-hour telephone counseling line at

512-472-HELP (4357)


If the matter is urgent and you feel like your safety is at risk, especially if you are feeling suicidal, please go directly to the closest emergency room or CALL 911.
