Support is available right now

TrailBlazier Counseling & Consulting is not an emergency or crisis-response service. Messages, emails, portal communications, and consultation forms are not monitored continuously. If you need immediate help, please do not wait for a response from the practice.

 

If You Are in Immediate Danger

If you or someone else may be in immediate danger, may act on thoughts of suicide or self-harm, or needs urgent medical attention:

Call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. If possible, ask someone you trust to stay with you or help you reach emergency care.

 

Call, Text, or Chat With 988

The 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline offers free, confidential support 24 hours a day, every day of the year. You do not have to be certain that your situation is a crisis before reaching out.

Call: 988
Text: 988
Chat: Chat with 988

A trained crisis counselor can listen, help you identify what you need, and connect you with additional support.

 

While You Connect With Help

If you can do so safely:

  • Move to a place where other people are present.

  • Tell someone you trust that you need support right now.

  • Ask that person to stay with you or remain on the phone.

  • Put distance between yourself and anything you could use to hurt yourself.

  • Keep your phone with you while you contact support.

  • Call 911 if the danger becomes immediate.
