Crisis Resources

At Down to the Root Denver Therapy, I care deeply about your safety and well-being. Because I provide scheduled outpatient therapy, I am not available for emergency or crisis services. If you are in immediate danger, please call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please reach out to one of the following trusted hotlines and resources:

Colorado Crisis Services

  • Phone: 1-844-493-8255

  • Text: Text “TALK” to 38255

  • Colorado Crisis Walk-In Centers

    In addition to the 24/7 phone and text line, Colorado Crisis Services operates walk-in centers across the state. These centers provide immediate, confidential, in-person support for mental health and substance use crises.

This is Colorado’s statewide, 24/7 resource for mental health and substance use crises.
