Using This Library

Information can be a starting point.

Educational resources and self-help tools can help you develop language for your experiences, learn new skills, and identify questions to bring into therapy. They cannot replace an individualized assessment, professional guidance, or treatment when those are needed. You do not need to figure everything out on your own before reaching out for support.

A note about using these resources

These organizations offer education, support, and information to help individuals explore their options. Some provide screening tools or referrals, while others offer treatment or crisis services. A screening result is not a diagnosis, and online information cannot replace an individualized evaluation by a qualified professional.

If you need immediate support

If you or someone you know is experiencing a mental health crisis in the United States, call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Support is available 24 hours a day.

If there is immediate danger or a life-threatening emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.
