Resources

Here are a few resources which I have gathered that are designed to support your mental health and personal growth journey. If you are experiencing a psychiatric emergency, please call 911, go to your nearest emergency room, call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (988), and/or text "HOME" to the Crisis Text Line (741741). If you are outside of the country, please call the local emergency line immediately. Thank you.
