CRISIS AND IMMEDIATE SUPPORT
Crisis Support
If you or someone you care about is in crisis, you are not alone—and help is available. Our crisis and emergency services are here to provide immediate support, help you stay safe, and connect you with the care you need.
Whether you’re experiencing overwhelming emotions, a mental health crisis, or are concerned about someone else, we are ready to listen and respond with compassion and care.
Emergency Services
Behavioral health crises don’t happen on a schedule, so our emergency services therapists work around the clock, offering brief crisis counseling, referrals for service, and triage for psychiatric hospitalization.
Crisis Stabilization
Sometimes, you need immediate treatment but not a hospital. Our Crisis Stabilization Unit offers comprehensive, wraparound care in a home-like setting. This 12-bed facility aims to deescalate crises and connect you with ongoing support.
Co-Response Teams (mental health & law enforcement)
Our co-response teams pair emergency services therapists with law enforcement officers to respond to emergency calls involving behavioral health issues.
Crisis Intervention Teams
Often, law enforcement officers are the first people to interact with an individual experiencing a mental health crisis. Crisis Intervention Training helps law enforcement officers respond to these situations with empathy and understanding.
