If you need help right now

Please reach a person first.

psiMentora is an AI companion for everyday emotional support. It is not an emergency service, cannot call for help, and is not a substitute for a crisis line, a clinician, or 911.

If you or someone near you is in immediate danger, call 911 now.

What psiMentora does in a crisis

psiMentora is designed to flag signs of crisis in a conversation and to show these resources right there, in the chat — before continuing.
psiMentora does not contact emergency services, does not know your location, and cannot dispatch help. Only a person can do that.
psiMentora is for adults 18 and over. It is not designed for children or for emergency situations.

When to talk to a professional instead of psiMentora

Thoughts of harming yourself or someone else, or a plan to do so.
Feeling unsafe at home, or being hurt by someone.
Symptoms that have lasted weeks and are getting in the way of work, sleep, eating or relationships.
Any situation where you would want a doctor's or therapist's judgment — psiMentora will tell you the same.

Finding a therapist in the US: your health plan's provider directory, Psychology Today's directory, or a federally qualified health center via findahealthcenter.hrsa.gov if cost is a barrier.

Outside the United States

Local crisis lines are listed by the International Association for Suicide Prevention (iasp.info/crisis-centres-helplines) and at findahelpline.com. psiMentora's crisis prompts are localized per country as we launch there.
