Direct Practice Interventions
I am available to assist with brief interventions for various clinical needs you or your organization may encounter as they arise. Not all organizations can hire staff to meet every need of their client population, or the need for clinical interventions/assessments are present, but not frequent enough to justify a staff hire. And lets be honest, many organizations are overwhelmed with the volume of work coming through the door. I can help. I am experienced and available to help provide a wide variety of short-term direct care services to your clients.
Examples include:
Diagnostic assessments/Differential diagnoses using the DSM-V
Substance use assessments
Crisis intervention
Child/Adult protection evaluations, including signing off on transport holds
Suicide risk assessment and safety planning
Afterhours on-call services
Health and welfare checks
Brief interventions for specific client needs (i.e. nightmares, safety planning, etc.)
Home visits/Environmental assessments (i.e. hoarding, referring for OT assessments, etc.)
Cognitive assessments
