Emergencies:

I check voicemail regularly and typically return phone calls within 24 hours Monday through Friday, and by the end of the day Monday for messages left Saturday and Sunday. However, if you think you cannot wait to have your call returned and need to speak to someone right away, day or night, please call the 24-hour telephone counseling line at (512) 472-HELP.

If the matter is urgent and you feel like your safety is at risk, especially if you are feeling suicidal, please call 911 or go directly to the closest emergency room.
