CRISIS INTERVENTION FOR INDIVIDUALS

Initial consultation: If you are struggling with depression, suicidal thoughts, substance abuse, anxiety, or other forms of psychological distress (see Symptoms & Disorders), and would like to discuss your concerns with someone who has helped many people in your situation, I am available via phone or in person. Call me at 415-440-5505 to set up an appointment.

I take a pragmatic, solution-oriented approach to crisis intervention.

I will help you develop a systematic and effective plan of action. I bring my extensive training and experience to bear on your unique problem. Together we will formulate a strategy for gaining control of the psychological crisis facing you.

Whether over the telephone or in-person (at your location or at my office in San Francisco), my goal is to help families, organizations and individuals quickly understand what is going on and what to do about it. I travel within the United States as well as abroad when requested.

I have over 20 years of experience working with patients who are acutely suicidal and/or psychotic and have conducted extensive research in this area. I am an expert in helping the friends and families of people in crisis access appropriate treatment options and learn how to prevent a future crisis.
