FACE-TO-FACE HELP
If you would like to speak to a professional face-to-face, you can consider these options: 

COMMUNITY INTERVENTION TEAMS (COMIT)
COMITs are community-based mental health service providers. With a wide range of professionals employed within these agencies (e.g. psychologists, counsellors, occupational therapists), they aim to provide accessible and holistic support for clients with mental health concerns within the community. 

For more information about COMIT Agencies, you may refer to the following link. To search for the nearest COMIT agency to you, you may click here. 

COMMUNITY RESOURCE, ENGAGEMENT AND SUPPORT TEAMS (CREST) 
Similar to COMITs, CREST agencies are based in the community. However, their work focuses more on improving awareness on mental health conditions. This is done by conducting screenings and holding outreach events aimed at educating the public about early signs and symptoms of mental health conditions. CREST agencies are also equipped in providing emotional support and in directing individuals to other services, where appropriate. 

For more information about CREST agencies, you may refer to the following link​. To find a CREST provider near you, you may refer to this document​.
