Crisis Services

Dee Thompson Psychology does not provide crisis support and is not available outside of booked sessions for emergency support.

​

If you feel unsafe, overwhelmed, or at risk, seek immediate help through local emergency services or a crisis support line.

​

Alternatively, speak to your GP, treating doctor, or local domestic, local mental health service or family violence service where applicable.

​

For Australian services, see below for contact details. If you live outside Australia, contact your local emergency services or national domestic violence / crisis support resources.
