Frequently Asked Questions
What counts as a mental health emergency?▾
Suicidal or homicidal thoughts, severe panic or psychotic symptoms, inability to care for yourself, or acute psychiatric worsening. Call us immediately or go to the ER if you or someone else is in danger.
What if I cannot reach you during business hours?▾
We provide crisis line information and an after-hours voicemail with emergency resources. For life-threatening situations, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Do I need to be an existing patient to get a same-day appointment?▾
No. We accept new patients in psychiatric crisis and schedule urgent intake same-day or next-day. Call our main line and mention acute symptoms.
Will I have to go to the emergency room?▾
Not necessarily. Our clinicians assess whether outpatient crisis stabilization is safe or if hospitalization is indicated. We refer to the ER only when medically necessary.
What happens after the urgent appointment?▾
We schedule follow-up care within 3–5 days to ensure continued stability. If you need frequent urgent visits, we discuss intensive outpatient programs or higher-level care options.
