Need urgent psychiatric evaluation

Seek an appropriate local crisis center, emergency department, or other in-person service that can evaluate you promptly. Do not wait for a routine Clarity Psychiatry appointment or portal reply if safety is uncertain.

Why location matters in telehealth

At each telehealth visit, you may be asked to confirm your current physical location and emergency contact. If a serious and imminent safety concern arises during a virtual visit, the clinician may use this information to coordinate emergency assistance when clinically and legally appropriate.
