A psychological crisis is a life event when a person perceives that a situation is too stressful and in which normal coping mechanisms do not feel like they are enough.   Most crisis situations that arise require immediate or same day attention.  You do not need a pre-scheduled appointment to see a counselor if you have an urgent, emergency situation.  Such crisis situations may include, but are not limited to:

  • Extreme sadness or depression
  • Extreme panic or anxiety
  • Thoughts of self-harm or suicide
  • Thoughts of harming someone else
  • Death of a loved one, family member or friend
  • Experience of a traumatic event
  • Experience of odd, bizarre or intrusive thoughts
  • Try to stop doing drugs or drinking alcohol and you can't 

 

If the stressful event is life threatening to yourself or
someone else, please call 911 NOW
