Counseling Now Mental Health Blog / U.S. Mental Health Statistics
U.S. Mental Health Statistics
This Counseling Now® page points readers and journalists to official public sources for U.S. mental health statistics. Counseling Now does not publish original patient data on this page, and it does not invent or update figures.
The SEO plan for this site named three live public sources and required that any number appear with a citation to the live page. The plan itself did not include verbatim statistics. Because this build does not invent or refresh numbers, no rates or counts are listed here. Use the source pages below and read the figure next to its citation on that site.
When writing or speaking about suicide, use the phrase “die by suicide.” If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 911. In the U.S., call or text 988 for crisis support.
For articles and explainers, see the Mental Health Blog. Journalists can also visit Experts for Media. Counseling Now offers nationwide online counseling. Plan availability varies; see the insurance and pricing page for the current list.
