Crisis Information
RMV Psychology is not a crisis service. We are usually busy helping clients, so we might be unavailable if needed urgently in an emergency. For this reason, it is important to be aware of the general support services available such as your General Practitioner (GP), Emergency Services (000), or your mental health crisis team. Click here to find the contact information of your local mental health crisis team.
If you are in a life-threatening situation, please call 000 immediately.
