Contacting this practice
Solutions Psychiatry is not an emergency service, and messages are not monitored around the clock. Reaching out to the practice is never the right move in an emergency; use the lines above first.
If you are an existing patient and it is not an emergency, message through the patient portal or Spruce, or call (800) 303-3221. If you are not yet a patient and you are safe, you can book a non-urgent visit through the practice site once you are ready.
If someone you love is in crisis
Stay with them if it is safe to do so, and ask directly about what they are thinking; asking does not plant the idea. Call 988 together, or call 911 if the danger is immediate. You do not need the perfect words. Presence, a phone, and one of the lines above are enough to start. After the emergency has passed, ongoing care can be arranged through the routes on this page.
