You do not have to go through this alone.
If this moment feels overwhelming, unsafe, confusing, or too heavy to carry alone, support is available now. You can call, text, or chat with someone trained to listen and help you through the next step.
Choose what feels possible right now.
That is enough. You do not need to explain everything perfectly.
We start by listening.
You can share as much or as little as you are ready to share.
A counselor can help steady the moment and talk through what is happening now.
If there are safety concerns, we can talk through options, supports, and ways to reduce immediate risk.
When helpful, we can connect you to resources, follow-up support, or emergency help.
You can contact support before things get worse.
Thoughts of suicide or self-harm
Reach out if you are thinking about suicide, hurting yourself, or unsure if you can stay safe.
Emotional distress
Reach out for anxiety, panic, grief, fear, overwhelm, loneliness, anger, or feeling unable to cope.
Concern for someone else
Reach out if you are worried about a friend, family member, coworker, client, student, or neighbor.
Not sure what you need
You can reach out even if you do not know what kind of help would make sense.
Confidential support after sexual violence.
Support is available for survivors and for people helping someone after sexual assault, child sexual abuse, or incest. What happened was not your fault. You can reach out when you are ready.
Simple answers.
Do I have to be suicidal to reach out?
No. You can reach out for suicidal thoughts, emotional distress, a behavioral health crisis, or any moment where support would help you get through what is happening.
Can I contact support for someone else?
Yes. If you are worried about someone else, you can reach out and talk through what you are seeing, what you are concerned about, and possible next steps.
What if I cannot explain what is wrong?
That is okay. You can start with “I need help,” “I do not know what to do,” or “I am worried about myself.” The counselor can help begin the conversation.
Will I be judged?
No. The goal is to listen, support safety, and help with the next step. You can talk about what is happening at your own pace.
What if I need ongoing help?
The counselor can talk with you about possible resources, supports, follow-up options, or emergency help when needed.
