Suicide Risk Assessment Training

Suicide Risk Assessment is an interactive training targeted to Master’s level and licensed mental health clinicians who are providing counseling and/or assessment in a variety of settings.  The training will address the need for training in suicide risk assessment, cover some of the statistics around suicide, and educate participants on how to recognize, assess, and intervene when working with clients who are at risk of suicidal ideation and/or behavior.
