Crisis support

A mental health crisis often means that you no longer feel able to cope or be in control of your situation. It usually involves a sudden or continued worsening of your symptoms. Our crisis services offer free emotional, social, and practical mental health support in a welcoming, comfortable, non-judgmental, and non-clinical environment.

We provide the following crisis services:
