Committed To Accessible Care For LGBTQ+
The LGBTQ+ community disproportionately experiences mental health challenges. In fact, the American Psychiatric Association reports that an individual who identifies as LGBTQ+ is more than twice as likely as a straight person to experience a mental health disorder at some point in their lives.
The fact that they experience discrimination and encounter stigmas on a regular basis certainly contributes to that. As an American society, we have historically not made it easy to be a part of this group. It’s no surprise that LGBTQ+ individuals face mental health challenges.
Our team at Hollywood Addiction Center Emergency Mental Health Response (EMHR) is committed to providing easily accessible mental health care to members of the LGBTQ+ community.
Wide Range Of Support For Crisis
With higher instances of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders, you’re more likely to face a serious mental health hurdle if you know yourself to be lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, queer, or any other not traditionally conforming identity.
When individuals face a panic attack, suicidal thoughts, or another problem with their mental wellness, we want them to know that they can call our team. Here at Hollywood Addiction Center, we’re dedicated to being there to answer the phone whenever any person needs someone to talk to.
Extensively Trained Responders
Our team at Hollywood Addiction Center can lend much more than just a listening ear. Each call center responder gets extensive training in handling a wide variety of mental health crises, including panic attacks. We specifically train our team in suicide prevention, too.
As mental health specialists who are committed to serving the LGBTQ+ community, our team at Hollywood Addiction Center strives to be not just available, but helpful during times of mental crises. Keep our number handy in case you or someone you know ever need to call in for immediate mental health care.
