Resources
Here are some resources that you may contact outside of my therapy practice and between sessions for extra support when needed.

and though no one could see her demons
they could see the face that conquered them”
Crisis
** If you or someone you know is in immediate crisis or danger, please get help as soon as possible. Although I try to make myself available to you, I am not able to provide crisis support between sessions. **
If you are unsure of if you are in a crisis, you may contact any of these resources and they may direct you to the appropriate resource.
What to do if you are in crisis:
Call or text the Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 988. You may also chat with them online by visiting https://988lifeline.org
Or call 911 or have a friend/ family member take you to the nearest emergency room.
You may also text HOME to 741741 for the Crisis Text Line. Also available on WhatsApp. For more info, visit https://www.crisistextline.org
non-crisis support
If you are not in a crisis, but could use some added emotional support between sessions, you may contact a warm line. Google “Warm Lines Cincinnati” to find a local warm line.
teen-specific non-crisis support
If you are teen and would like non-crisis support specifically for teens, you may find information about TEEN LINE here:
Or you may TEXT TEEN to 839863
