Lifeline

Walk-in Mental Health Clinic

When symptoms feel overwhelming but don’t meet emergency criteria, you still deserve timely, expert care. MindShift fills the space between ER visits and prolonged therapy waitlists with responsive, psychiatrist-led support. We provide same-day mental health evaluations and targeted treatment—no long waits or referrals required. Walk in or call ahead. We’re ready to help.

If you are having a mental health emergency, such as actively attempting suicide or planning on harming others, take a deep breath and seek immediate medical attention by going to the ER. You don’t have to deal with these overwhelming feelings on your own, and there is hope - you can get better.

What We Treat

While not every mental health concern is an emergency, that doesn’t mean you should wait. At MindShift, we offer same-day psychiatric care for urgent issues that need fast support. We specialize in:

Anxiety

Racing thoughts, panic attacks, and constant worry can escalate quickly. We help you regain control with prompt evaluation, stabilization, and a clear treatment plan.
