Crisis is part of being human.
When we’re in a crisis, the mind can play a trick on us — suddenly, all the coping strategies and supports we rely on can feel out of reach. That’s why I encourage everyone to have a Safety & Soothing Plan ready.

Consider creating your plan with your mental health provider or alongside a trusted Wise Woman when you’re not in crisis, and revise it as often as you need.

This resource is free to download, copy, and share. Please pass it along to clients, friends, family, and community members — because every human deserves a plan to care for themselves in difficult moments.
