If you are struggling with self-harm or thoughts of not wanting to be here, you do not have to hide it and you don’t have to go through it alone. This is a safe space to be honest and get support.
Send a message to set up an appointment so we can talk about what you are going through and how to help you stay safe.
If you are in immediate danger, please call 988, 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Ready to Talk?
If you’re hurting yourself or thinking about not wanting to be here, you deserve care—not shame or lectures.
Self-harm and suicidal thoughts often grow from intense pain, feeling like a burden, or believing things will never get better.
Reaching out is a courageous step. In session, you will not be punished for your honesty. This is a place to be real and get support.
IMPORTANT: If you are in immediate danger or cannot stay safe, please contact 988 OR 911 (in the U.S.), go to the nearest emergency room, or call your local emergency number. Online therapy is not a crisis service.
