Emergency Services

If you are feeling unsafe, I encourage you to use the emergency room at the hospital or call 911


Please note that Tanglewood Counselling does not provide emergency services.

24/7 Crisis Line

The Vancouver Island Crisis Line provides a 24-hour support line by calling 1-888-494-8333


They can listen to your concerns, offer suggestions for coping, refer you to community services, and help determine if you need emergency services.

Consider Speaking with Your Doctor

Many people choose to contact their family practitioner after a distressing event. Your doctor may be able to support you with medication, time off work, and/or referrals to community services.
