Ags:

I have a friend from high school who just moved here who desperately needs therapy immediately and possibly in-patient help. She's borderline suicidal and out of whack.

She lives on Lamar south of river. Recommendations please

24/7 Psychiatric Crisis Hotline at 512-472-HELP (4357)

Brackenridge has 24/7 Psych emergency room if it comes to that.

Austin Lakes Hospital +1 (512) 356-9062

If it's counseling you want my wife is an LPC. Her private practice is in oak hill area. If she can't see them she might be able to recommend someone.

Worst case scenario pack your friend up and take them to Austin State Hospital.

It's not the best solution, but it sounds like it's also not the worst.

Best of luck to you and your friend. And good on you for searching out help.

If your friend is going state services route and needs help with the red tape, let me know.
