 “The truth is that with the onset of Covid, social distancing, economic stress, and significant changes in our daily lives, the stress can be insurmountable. If you or a loved one had a broken leg you would get them to medical care? We would not say please suffer and let's see how crooked it turns out. We would say let's get it fixed, let's get you comfortable, let's put in the time so it heals correctly. A mental health emergency is no different. Timely, professional care with an open dialogue about wellness can make the difference between further crisis and stabilization."
Sarah Livingston, Director of Crisis Services
