Colorado Mental-Health Support: 988 and Care Navigation. Practical questions, official sources and treatment-specific safety guidance for Colorado residents.
Immediate support through 988
The 988 Colorado Mental Health Line offers free, confidential support 24 hours a day by call, text or chat. Call or text 988 if you need mental-health crisis support. For an immediate medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department. Our directory and inquiry forms are not emergency services.
Finding behavioral-health services
Colorado's Behavioral Health Administration directs residents to care navigation through CO-LIFTS at 1-844-265-4387. Read its Get help page for current access options. Care navigation is separate from emergency response and does not establish ketamine availability, eligibility or insurance coverage.
Health First Colorado access
The state describes covered behavioral-health services through regional organizations, including therapy, medication management and psychiatric care. Members should consult the official behavioral-health services page, their regional organization and their clinician. General behavioral-health coverage is not a promise that a particular ketamine treatment is covered.
Considering specialized treatment
Ask a qualified clinician about established treatments and the risks, evidence and monitoring for any proposed ketamine or esketamine option. A directory listing is not an endorsement or a guarantee of access. Our Colorado resource page and town guides provide sources and practical access questions.
