GET FREE PROFESSIONAL HELP
The SafeUT app provides a way to connect to licensed counselors that are ready to listen for any sized crisis or concern. Help is immediate and confidential, and as easy as reaching for your phone and sending that first text.
What Can I Expect?
Our goal is to help you move from a place of crisis or distress to a calmer, safer place. We then help you create a plan to stay safe and get connected with resources that can help you solve the problems you're facing.
To chat/text with us through the SafeUT app, click "Start a chat" from the main screen of the app. You can then chat directly with the crisis counselor on the next screen.
The crisis counselor will receive the message and respond quickly in real-time. You will have a safe and nonjudgmental space to talk about your crisis. They will work with you in joint problem-solving, and can help with information about community resources that might offer more support.
Our counselors work on a team with other crisis workers in Huntsman Mental Health Institute's Crisis Services department. Our licensed staff are available 24/7/365. We help students discover skills and resources they can use to solve their problems and feel better.
