Hywel Dda has become the first health board in Wales to launch a dedicated mental health advice service.
The health board will now offer support for all age groups through the established 111 call line.
From Monday, June 20, people across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Pembrokeshire will be able to access the service by phoning 111 and selecting option two.
Once option two has been selected, people will then be put through to a mental health practitioner.
