Crisis Resources

OurOpenSpace is not an emergency or crisis service. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 911. If you are thinking about suicide or self-harm, or are in emotional distress, the resources below are free, confidential, and available 24/7 in the United States.

Not in immediate crisis?

If you are safe but struggling, booking a session with a licensed clinician is a good next step — many sessions on OurOpenSpace are free or low-cost, and online options are usually available within days. You can also reach our support team from your dashboard for help using the platform (note: support staff are not clinicians and cannot provide counseling).
