Crisis, Emergency, Urgent – Help is Here!
We don’t know when a crisis will strike us or surprise us. At those times anxiety typically pays us a visit and we panic or get paralyzed with fear and anxious feelings. We may loose some or all of our ability to recall self-helping information. Here is a short list of services and options for any crisis, emergency or urgent situations where you need immediate attention.
