Humanize - Talk Now

Current Situation
Messaging therapy apps often state things like "If you're having suicidal thoughts, don't use this app." -- Their inability to deal with those urgent situations is understandable, but the experience of how they communicate that is dehumanizing.

While they give you X amount of numbers you can call instead, even the way you see that list feels like an after thought. Why does seeing the phone number matter to the human in need of help. Just give me a button to call or message that service. It's kind of gut-wrenching to see the name 1-800-SUICIDE and follow through with calling.

Proposed Concept
Still working on the UI writing, but here's my first iteration on making this experience comfortable. By decreasing the overall emphasis on "Crisis Line" and using the card format, it helps show other relevant pieces of information, without screaming the title at them.
